David is a Senior studying Industrial and Systems Engineering.

 What is your favorite thing about Phi Sigma Pi?
  • The community. The individuals in Phi Sigma Pi are great of course, but the community that develops when those people come together is awesome. It gives you a sense of belonging and a support system during a time where you could really use those things.
 What’s something you should throw away but can’t?
  • Serious answer: Regrets. When things are in the past, you should let go of them and move on, but I sometimes struggle with this. Non-serious answer: Receipts. I don’t really throw away my receipts. What if I need one later??
 In your opinion, what is the best show or movie on Netflix?
  • There are probably better shows/movies on Netflix, some that I even like more, but I cannot stop watching How I Met Your Mother right now. I have probably never been more addicted to a show, and can’t answer this question with anything else.
What is something that amazes you?
  • So much amazes me, and it is hard to pick just one thing. But something that amazes me is the breadth of differences between humans. One person can be one way, while another person can be the complete opposite. Additionally, it’s amazing that with all the people in the world, everyone is different in some way.

Emma Timan

Emma is a 3rd year studying Political Science and International Affairs Dual Degree with a minor in Spanish. 

What is your favorite thing about Phi Sigma Pi?
  • My favorite thing about PSP is how nice and fun every member of Phi Sigma Pi is. They always make me laugh and every time I am with them I have a good time.
 What’s something you should throw away but can’t?
  • My dead plants (Leslie Knope and Ron Swanson) {RIP}
 In your opinion, what is the best show or movie on Netflix?
  • Parks and Recreation is the best show and Notting Hill is the best movie
What is something that amazes you?
  • The entire country of Canada.

Emily Thieroff


Emily is a third year studying Psychology.

What is your favorite thing about Phi Sigma Pi?
  • My favorite thing about PSP is the people. The people in this organization are some of the most genuine and down-to-earth I have ever met in my life. Even though we are all different years and majors, we get along so well because we all hold the values of the tripod and are passionate about what we do.
What is something you’ve won and how did you win it?
  • In my initiate class, I won the superlative "Most likely to get lost on a COTA bus." This is because the second week of my freshman year it actually did happen. Basically, that day I had about a 2 hour tour of Columbus.
How often do you read your horoscope? Do you believe there’s any truth to it?
  • I think I have read my horoscope maybe once or twice in my life. 
If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life what would it be and why?
  • It would be impossible for me to listen to only one song for the rest of my life because I change what I listen to everyday! I would probably pick Identity & The Ground by Ola Gjeilo. It is one of my favorite pieces I played in orchestra and the most peaceful thing I have ever heard.

Avery Borchers


Avery is a third year studying Speech and Hearing Science.

What is your favorite thing about Phi Sigma Pi?
  • The people having fun at the events my fellowship chair and I create.
What is something you’ve won and how did you win it?
  • I won a Halloween contest because I looked spot on like a geisha and no one could tell I was actually like seven.
How often do you read your horoscope? Do you believe there’s any truth to it?
  • I read it like once or twice a month. I see a ton of parallels when I read my personality horoscope which is Cancer. I am still waiting for the financial promises I was said to get a month ago though.
If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life what would it be and why?
  • this is so hard for me. So many things are running through my head. Some Fetty for the rest of my life or maybe soulful forever with Adele. After much debate I will have to go with Monster Eminem and Rihanna.  Eminem is a legend and Rihanna is my spirit animal.
