The Council applauded Leslie and Shelia for their efforts.

3) Membership dues were discussed. A Resolution was made to amend the by-laws to incorporate membership dues. “An institutional membership contribution of $25 has been established and will be payable by August 1 each fiscal year. For those institutions who are not members, the registration fee for the annual conference would be increased by $5.00 per attendee with the additional $5 going to state membership. The monies will be collected by the host institution for the annual conference and a separate check will be issued and made payable to the institution of the treasurer. The dues will be housed in an agency account at the institution of the treasurer and will be used for the purchase of conference expenses, stationery, postage, and miscellaneous items.”

Mary Nevill presented the Council with a registration form for membership dues. The Council recommended that the word COMPANY be removed and INSTITUTION be inserted in its place.
