The Board of Governors
The Board of Governors (BOG) oversees the chapter and reviews it's progress toward at least meeting the Borradaile Challenge. It is made up of at least 3 alumni and other adults. The BOG liasons with the National Headquarters and KU's Sorority & Fraternity Life and is responsible for managing disbursements from the Phi Kappa Tau Foundation to the chapter. The BOG meets at least monthly and works directly with the Resident Council (RC). If you are interested in supporting the chapter by working with the undergraduates, the BOG is the place to be! Contact any BOG member to find out how to get started.
