The AERE Officers and Board of Directors are very pleased to announce the creation of a new membership program that invites research institutions, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and corporations to become Institutional Members of AERE and colleges, universities and university research centers to become University Members of AERE.
Intellectual entrepreneurship is a distinguishing characteristic of AERE. Equally important, AERE research activities also display a remarkable degree of involvement with other disciplines because the issues require it. But the dues of its individual members are not sufficient to support the growing needs of the organization. AERE needs the help of organizations involved in the same fields of interest to help with its programs and outreach to students and young professionals in both the U.S. and overseas. In addition, financial support will help with the increasing costs of managing membership services including the membership database, journal subscriptions, and workshop and annual meeting registrations among other association costs.
To become an Institutional Member of AERE, a contribution of $1,000 is required. With this contribution, institutions may:
-
designate one staff member to receive a 2008 individual membership in AERE (which includes a print and electronic subscription to JEEM, the bi-annual AERE Newsletter and a reduced fee for submitting articles to JEEM);
-
be entitled to a sponsorship listing on the AERE Web Page, in the AERE Newsletter, and every issue of JEEM;
-
receive one free advertisement this year on the AERE Web Page and in the AERE Newsletter (a savings of $250);
-
One nontransferable registration for institution staff to the annual AERE Workshop;
-
receive two nontransferable tickets for institution staff to the annual AERE luncheon and business meeting;
-
receive recognition at the annual AERE luncheon and business meeting.
