Chi Phi Congress
Legislative assembly of Chapters (each receiving two votes), Colonies (each receiving one vote), Alumni Associations (each receiving one vote), Chi Phi Clubs (entitled to voice but no voting rights), and the Grand Council (entitled to voice but no voting rights). Congress is chaired by the "Alpha of Congress," who is elected by that body prior to any other proceedings.
Congress elects the Grand Alpha and Governors of the Trust, oversees the general success of the Fraternity, sets and approves the Fraternity's annual budget, sets and implements policies and procedures, convenes a "Court of the Congress" (highest judicial branch of the Fraternity) to hear any and all cases that may come before it, and provides directives to the Grand Council and National Staff.
