What is the role of the National Phylacter?

• A. National Secretary
• B. National Treasurer
• C. National Parliamentarian
• D. National President

Answer: (C)

The role being tested centers on governance and how meetings are run. The National Parliamentarian is the person charged with guiding procedure during meetings, advising officers and members on motions, points of order, and the proper order of business. This position ensures that deliberations follow the rules, that motions are stated correctly, and that the bylaws or standing rules are interpreted consistently. That focus on parliamentary procedure sets it apart from the National Secretary, who handles records and correspondence; the National Treasurer, who manages finances; and the National President, who leads the organization and represents it publicly.
