Today, the South Eastern Region celebrates the birthday of Soror Vanessa Rogers Long, the 20th South Eastern Regional Director. Initiated through Beta Tau Chapter, she led the region from 1994 to 1998 with a vision that left a lasting imprint on our programs and our people.
Her administration established the South Eastern Regional Summer Partners in Mathematics and Science (PIMS) Camp at Piney Woods Country Life School, opening doors for young scholars across the region. She also created the Vanessa Rogers Long Humanitarian Award, an honor that continues to recognize service and compassion among our sisters. Under her leadership, the region expanded its footprint by chartering six graduate chapters.
Please join us in wishing Soror Long a very happy birthday and in honoring the legacy she built.
Happy birthday to a leader whose work continues to shape our region today. 🩷💚✨
