Interested 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 Francesca Bishop at El Camino College, [email protected]
