Oh brother.
where art thou?
Students find comfort with siblings at Texas A&M
By Heather Campbell
THE BATTALION
Amy Wonsmos, a junior marketing
major, said that going to A&M with her
older brother and sister has far exceeded her
expectations.
“It was such a blessing to have Jeff and
Kelley here my first semester because it was
hard to adjust at first,” Amy said. “They taught
me the ropes and I knew who 1 could go to for
advice and encouragement. I followed in their
footsteps by doing Fish Camp and other
organizations they were involved in.”
Siblings can alleviate first-semester
pressures and can be comforting when
faced with stress.
“Family is a great place to turn to when
you need reassurance or someone who you
know is pulling for you,” Amy said. “My sis
ter would always send me notes or bake me
cookies when 1 had hard weeks.”
Amy said during sorority rush, her sister
bought her lunch and a cake for good luck and
they eventually pledged for the same sorority.
Jeff Wonsmos, a senior accounting
major, pulled pranks on Kelley, Class of
1999. Kelley and her roommates fought
back and the war began, Jeff said. They did
everything from taping each other to chairs
to leaving each other’s possessions on their
front porches.
For the Wonsmos siblings, being at A&M
deepened their relationship.
“By going to A&M together, my brother,
sister and I are fulfilling the dream that our
Aggie grandfather had for us,” Amy said.
“This is a bond we will share forever.”
Having siblings can be taken for granted
and once at college many realize the impor
tance of keeping those relationships close
and deepening them.
Amy said she learned to appreciate her
siblings more after the Sept. 11 tragedies.
“I never want to take my siblings for
granted and I make it a priority to spend time
with them at least once a week.” Amy said.
Family is a great place
to turn to when you need
reassurance.
— Amy Wonsmos
junior marketing major
“The tragedy made me realize how grateful 1
am to have a brother and sister who care
about me and want the best for me.”
Summer Wiese, a junior architecture
major, broke her ankle and her sister stepped
in to help. Megan Wiese, a senior education
major, drove her to classes everyday and
made sure she was OK.
