Regional PagesInterested in being a Regional Governor?Each region elects a governor that serves as a liaison between his/her region and Phi Rho Pi. Becoming a Regional Governor is a great way to represent your region, take on a stronger leadership role, accept more responsibility at the national tournament, and understand the workings of Phi Rho Pi. Regional Governors are elected every two years at the national tournament by his/her respective region. If you would like more information contact your Regional Governor or Jeff Przybylo at Harper College, jprzybyl@harper.cc.il.us.

Each region shall elect its Governor at a time and place it selects but must report the name of the Governor each year at the National Convention Tournament. Please notify the Vice-president of Association of any changes. E. Assist the officers in enforcing the curfew rule.
