The Grand Chapter is an assembly of delegates composed of representatives from each Collegiate Chapter, each Alumni Chapter, and the members of the National Council. The Grand Chapter is described in National Constitution Article V, Section 2 as the supreme governing body of Phi Sigma Pi: "All final legislative powers of Phi Sigma Pi shall be vested in the Grand Chapter." The Grand Chapter is required to meet "at least once every two (2) years" (NC AXII, S1), but traditionally meets annually during the summer months at the Grand Chapter Conference.
