\n\u0093I am honored to have been nominated and elected to serve as the Phi Kappa Phi Divisional Vice President for Division V, representing and supporting the development of chapters at baccalaureate institutions, HBCU\u0092s, health science centers and military service academies,\u0094 Gregory said. \u0093My Society experiences with smaller chapters began when I was inducted as an undergraduate student at a small baccalaureate institution, and I have served in various chapter officer capacities at smaller institutions. I look forward to assisting with the chapter development and growth, and to contributing to the overall advancement of Phi Kappa Phi.\u0094
