Gavin Thomas Janis
Senior
Class of Fall 2018 

I have been a brother of SAE for three years now, and I have held the position of President, Vice President, and New Member Educator. These past three years have easily been the best years of my life, and I cannot thank the scholarship opportunity presented to me enough. Since sophomore year my personal situation has required me to cover all the expenses that come with attending Cal, so to say this scholarship has been helpful is an understatement. 

Thank you and Phi Alpha,

Gavin Janis 

 

 

Parker Bosche
Junior
Spring 2020

I joined SAE last spring and in that time have developed great friendships with so many of my peers. I can’t imagine my college experience without the memories and relationships I have formed in this house. I am a junior studying economics and this scholarship helps me focus in on my academics and makes it easier for me to succeed and take a more active role in the house which I am extremely grateful for. Phi Alpha!

 

Conner Taherian
Senior
Class of Fall 2019

I am currently a senior studying Political Economy, and will be working in finance after I graduate. I have been a part of SAE for almost two years now, and have held positions such as risk manager and treasurer. Not having to constantly worry about financial obligations thanks to this scholarship has been such a blessing, and has allowed me to take a greater role in this house. This scholarship has allowed me to enjoy my last semester at Cal and with all my brothers, so thank you again for this opportunity.

Thank you for everything, Phi Alpha!
