As a Corporation the AVC is run by an Elected Board of Directors and they select the Corporate Officers. There are regular meetings of the AVC to discuss both Finances and the ongoing requirements of the Fraternity and to insure that those requirements are being met. All Alumni are encouraged to join in on the meetings. For more information please see the Corporation Bylaws available upon request. You can also contact the Secretary or any other AVC Officer.
