A Taste of Southern

Event Sponsorship Details

We invite you to take part in an evening dedicated to transforming lives by supporting first-generation college students.
 
A Taste of Southern will be held at The Chattanoogan Hotel on Thursday, October 2, 2025, beginning at 6:00 p.m. with a pre-show archaeology display and a special reservation-only guest lecture by Dr. Michael Hasel, recently returned from Israel. Come for the pre-show to experience demonstrations from our Blacksmithing Club and 3D printing from our School of Engineering and Physics. Then, enjoy a tasty dinner while hearing campus updates from Southern's president, the presentation of new awards, and rousing entertainment from the Nashville-raised and New York-based Annie Moses Band. 

Sponsorship benefits include visibility on printed material at the event, on the event website, representation from stage at the event, and inclusion on the event invitation.
 
Join us in making a difference and creating opportunities that will last a lifetime.
