A message from our
Director of External Correspondence
Hey everyone! My name is Earicka Jones and I am delighted to be the 2025 Director of External Correspondence for the USC Helenes.
Within this position, I make it my responsibility to cultivate a strong relationship with both the parents of our Helenes and the alums of this lovely organization. Even after an alumni graduates from USC, the precious time they spent as a Helene and the memories they made within the organization will hopefully stick with them as they thrive outside of the college environment. Helenes wouldn’t be where they are today if it weren’t for the strides that past alums have made within the organization. There is a great deal of knowledge and experience that current Helenes can take in and learn from all of our alums as many of their paths are similar. Alums should always feel like they have another home within the Helenes family and I hope to make sure that feeling continues. Make sure you’re checking your emails as I’ll be sending you all newsletters to keep you updated on what’s happening in Helenes ways you can get involved!!
I also want to give a thank you to the many amazing parents of our Helenes. You have raised stunning individuals that have contributed and continue to contribute to the Helenes as a whole and we are so fortunate to have them be a part of this organization. As the year progresses, I will keep you informed on what Helenes has been up to and how you personally can get involved within the organization as there will be opportunity to send your loved ones care package during the semester!
As the Director of External Correspondence, I want to prioritize not only continuing to make Helenes a financially accessible organization but also ensuring that there is this viable connection being maintained between current Helenes and alums. In addition to that, I want to keep both parents and alums in the loop on the positive progress the Helenes organization is making within both USC and the greater Los Angeles area as a whole. Please feel free to reach out to me, whether it may be questions you have regarding the organization or how you think we can better improve it, don’t hesitate to reach out to me!
Helenes love and all of mine,
Earicka Jones (she/her)

A message from our
Director of Public Relations
Hi everyone! My name is Nyla Johnson, and I am so happy and privileged to serve as the 2025 Director of Public Relations for the USC Helenes.
Social media often serves as the front door for organizations; for many, it’s their first impression of Helenes. I aim to ensure our social media presence paints a clearer picture of who we are, showcasing our commitment to diversity, service, and community. During my recruitment, the Helenes’ social media played a huge role in helping me understand our values and mission. I want to help others gain the same understanding and connection to Helenes.
​
Joining Helenes has been one of the best decisions I’ve made since coming to USC, and I can’t wait to give back to the organization that has given me so much already. The friends I’ve made and the experiences I’ve had are truly irreplaceable, and I’m excited to make more memories!
As the Director of Public Relations, I am responsible for managing all of our social media accounts and our website. With this, I’m given the opportunity to highlight the amazing work of our talented members, along with the contributions that Helenes makes to the USC and LA community.
​
Additionally, I have the opportunity to connect with those outside of our organization, whether that be other student organizations, communities within the greater Los Angeles area, or beyond. If you’re interested in working with the USC Helenes, I would love to offer resources and support in any way we can.
If you have any questions about the USC Helenes or would like to work with us, don’t hesitate to send me an email!
Helenes love and all of mine,
Nyla Johnson (she/her)
Director of Public Relations
