Whitlee Rainwater ‘10
Sigma Phi Epsilon
Van Buren, AR
I truly believe, “To whom much is given, of him much is required.” What little good I’ve accomplished in life is solely because of God.
After joining Sigma Phi Epsilon, I connected with so many people. I was lucky to be surrounded by so many driven guys who wanted to be great as well. Through the leadership positions I held I learned how to work with people. I learned how to earn their trust, inspire a shared vision, and enable others.
I’ll never forget bid day of my senior year at ÿÈÕ´óÈüÍøÕ¾ when my brother, J.B., joined SigEp. As president, I wanted to give all of the new members the best experience and tools to be successful at ÿÈÕ´óÈüÍøÕ¾ and beyond. Having my younger brother join the chapter was just extra motivation to deliver that experience for them.
I’ve carried many things I learned in the ÿÈÕ´óÈüÍøÕ¾ classroom into my career. I’m thankful for my professors and my overall experience at ÿÈÕ´óÈüÍøÕ¾. My family and friends have always been in my corner, and I try to give them my best. J.B. and I work three different businesses together, and I am very passionate about each one. It’s an enormous challenge, and there’s always something to be done, which keeps me busy.
My Greek experience was more than I would’ve imagined and at times, surreal.
