Memories of our 2023 Event
The second A Taste of Southern event was held at The Chattanoogan Hotel September
28. The 350 local business and organization professionals in attendance experienced
a glimpse of what students enjoy every day on the Collegedale campus. Guests watched
a live, outdoor routine from the university’s Gym-Masters acrobatic team, purchased
silent auction items, and saw animation unfold presented by the School of Visual Art
and Design. Southern alum Rebecca Hogan of Russ Blakely & Associates shared her experience
as a first-generation student and invited the audience to support others like her.
Close to $130,000 was raised, with proceeds adding to the university’s endowment scholarship
for first-generation college students.
