Under Fraternity governance, the biennial District Council Meetings were held this summer. Chapters were required to send at least one delegate to their respective meeting in their district. During the meetings, members focused on training and education related to the Fraternity and their chapters. A critical aspect of District Council Meetings is the election of Archons. Archons elected at these meetings will sit on the Executive Council until the summer of 2025.
