On March 11, 2011, Taylor Anderson, Theta Zeta-Randolph-Macon College alumna and beloved Alpha Gamma Delta sister, tragically lost her life in the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. A passionate advocate for cultural exchange, Taylor graduated with a degree in International Studies with minors in Asian Studies and Political Science in 2008. Through the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Program, she devoted her life to educating students and strengthening the bond between the United States and Japan.
Taylor’s legacy lives on at Randolph-Macon College and in the hearts of Alpha Gamma Delta members. She continues to inspire others, especially through the college’s Japanese study abroad program. Each year on March 11 at 2:46 p.m., the RMC community observes a moment of silence in her honor.
In honor of Taylor's memory, Theta Zeta Chapter has established the Taylor Anderson Memorial Scholarship, benefitting collegians and alumnae of Theta Zeta. Taylor reminds us of the difference one person can make and remains a lasting symbol of hope and unity. A gift today helps carry on her legacy of living with kindness, embracing diversity and welcoming change.
