With 12 over 50 years, who are Chi Omega Golden members.
  Hundred years of mentorship, educational support, health advocacy, 
and a steadfast commitment to our HBCUs, and transforming lives and 
strengthening eastern North Carolina.
  I congratulate everyone who came to celebrate this amazing 
celebration of 100 years, including the guest speaker, 30th
