Erin Whittington graduated from BEST High
School in 2003. She has just finished her second year at Bellevue Community
College and has maintained a 3.97 cumulative grade point average. Erin is
majoring in chemistry and plans to attend medical school to pursue a career in
either ophthalmology or neurology. Along with taking on a full class load, Erin
participates in extracurricular activities in the community and on campus. She
served as the Vice President of Fellowship for BCC's chapter of Phi Theta Kappa
(the International honor society of the two-year college) for the 2004-2005
school year. With her school's chapter, Erin helped host the 2004 Bellevue Relay

raise funds for cancer research. In 2004, BCC's chapter of Phi Theta Kappa
helped bring in over $78,000 for this cause. Erin has also been volunteering for
the past year and a half at Evergreen Hospital Medical Center in the emergency
room and at the information desks. Erin will be transferring to the
University of Washington in Fall of 2005 to begin her junior year in college.
Erin's plans for the near future include moving in with her boyfriend Kevin, and
preparing for the MCAT, which she plans to take in the Spring of 2006.
