Re: INFO: DIV. 20 DUES REDUCED!!

There is an error in the business meeting minutes that were just distributed. Lynn Martire has stepped down from the Membership Committee. Ann Pearman, one of our two members at large, has gracously agreed to serve as co-chair in her place. Thanks to both Lynn and Ann for taking this on, and apologies to all for the confusion.

Best,
Pat

Subject: INFO: DIV. 20 DUES REDUCED!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Division 20's Executive Committee voted to recommend reducing dues to $20/year (from the current $44), and just $12/year for students, which was passed by the membership at the business meeting (see attached). We accomplished this by eliminating Psychology and Aging as a member benefit, but those who want hard copies can still use their APA journal credit to subscribe to this outstanding journal. This was a difficult decision, and one that we've debated for some time, but keeping membership up is essential to making certain that your interests are adequately represented at APA.

So – pass the word! Join Division 20! Our new slogan is: $20 for 20! :)

I've enjoyed serving the Division during this past year. Thanks to members of the EC for all of their hard work! The new president, Pat Parmelee, will do a great job keeping your interests at the forefront of APA.

Cheers!
Carolyn
