Who is the governing body of the Alpha Kappa Psi Foundation, and who appoints it?

• A. The governing body is the Board of Trustees appointed by the Executive Committee.
• B. The governing body is the Foundation staff appointed by the President.
• C. The governing body is the Chapter Congress appointed by the Board of Trustees.
• D. The governing body is the Executive Committee appointed by the Board of Trustees.

Answer: (D)

The governing body of the Alpha Kappa Psi Foundation is the Executive Committee, and it is appointed by the Board of Trustees. The Executive Committee handles the critical governance tasks between full Board meetings—setting policy directions, guiding financial stewardship, and making timely decisions that keep the Foundation moving forward—while remaining accountable to the Board. The Board of Trustees holds the ultimate fiduciary authority and oversees and approves the Executive Committee’s structure and actions. Foundation staff, led by the President, manage daily operations and implement board-approved policies; they aren’t the governing body. The Chapter Congress operates in a different capacity within the fraternity and does not govern the Foundation.
