Who is responsible for keeping minutes in the chapter?

The role of the Grammateus, or Secretary, in an Alpha Kappa Alpha chapter is specifically to keep accurate records of meetings, known as minutes. This responsibility includes documenting the proceedings, decisions made, and any actions taken during chapter meetings. The minutes serve as an official record that can be referred back to by members for clarification and continuity.

While other officers have important roles, such as the President overseeing the meeting and the Anti-Basileus assisting the Basileus (President) in fulfilling their duties, it is the Grammateus who is primarily tasked with the meticulous job of minute-taking. This position is crucial in ensuring that the chapter's activities are properly recorded and communicated to all members.
