Idaho Alpha Phi

Meet Our Chapter President

Welcome to the Beta Zeta Chapter!

 

My name is Emily Scrupps, and I currently serve as the Chapter President of the Beta Zeta Chapter of Alpha Phi at the University of Idaho. I am honored to represent 85 of the most incredible women I have come to know.

13 years ago, I walked through the doors of Alpha Phi. My little six-year-old mind was bouncing off the walls, and I couldn’t wait until the day that I could live with a bunch of my closest friends. Flash forward 13 years, and I am so grateful to be able to live each day with those I love just footsteps away.

 

Alpha Phi’s history begins in 1872 with ten empowering women who took the courageous leap to overcome societal barriers. I notice the same ideals of character, innovation, generosity, and sisterhood that our founders embodied in each of my sisters. These ideals are portrayed in love notes left on desks, volunteerism, giant embraces after weeks apart, late-night drives, excellent scholarship, and even slight gestures of “I am always here.” These are just a few moments where I have witnessed the love of Alpha Phi. I think I could speak for my sisters when I say that life is not always easy and highly unpredictable, but our sisters in Alpha Phi will always be there to lend a hand, be a shoulder to cry on, or be the comforting embrace on a cloudy day.

 

The joy I anticipated many years ago has far exceeded my expectations. Over a year, I have already made my best friends, created some of my fondest memories, impacted my community, excelled in academics, and became a leader of Greek and university communities, none of which would have been made possible without my sisters’ generosity, kindness, and inspiration. I am so fortunate to be able to do life alongside such incredible women. My sisters push me to be the best version of myself every day, and I have accomplished more than I could have ever imagined due to the support of these generous and loving women.

 

I know that my six-year-old self would look up in admiration of the woman I have become due to the sisterhood I will forever call home.

My very best,

 

Emily Scrupps
