We all know that an
organization
is only as strong as its members, but in the case of AAUP a strong and
representative
membership is especially important. AAUP was formed to respond to
the
needs of faculty, so if not all faculty join, we can't respond to all
of
your needs because we don't know them!
There
are two ways to join AAUP.
(1) Pay directly to national AAUP once each year.
The easiest way is to use the online
membership form at AAUP's web site. Dues are listed beside the
form. Chapter
dues
are $5 annually. If you choose the integrated option, national AAUP
returns
$5 to us each year. If you choose the basic, you will be notified each
year
when to pay your chapter dues locally.
If you
decide
to pay directly to national, please notify Lessie
Culmer-Nier that you are joining so she can add your name
to
the chapter membership list.
(2) Payroll deduction.You can find a copy of the
authorization
form in the AAUP public folder at: Network
Neighborhood\Janus\depts\aaup\payroll_deduction_form.wpd.
A memo
on
membership categories is also in that folder.
- Please
return the completed and signed form to Lessie
Culmer-Nier, at the Library and she will turn it into Payroll
and
the national AAUP office.
Chapter dues of $5 are deducted by Payroll
once
a year, usually in January.

chair for
