The vote on the proposed tiered membership dues structure was open from September 29 – October 12. The voting period has now closed and the tiered membership dues structure has passed!
AEJMC had 573 members vote with 421 yes votes (73.47%) and 152 no votes (26.53%).
The tier structure, including the new prices for membership dues, will go into effect on Monday, October 17.
Since the change in membership dues structure passed, members will need to approve the necessary amendments to the bylaws to support this fee structure change. They will receive an email next week with the proposed bylaw amendments and a link to an online discussion, along with additional information about the new tiered membership dues structure.
AEJMC President, Dr. Deb Aikat said: “We are gratified that AEJMC members have approved the new membership fees, which are more equitable and affordable for all.”
If you have any questions, please contact Amanda Caldwell, AEJMC Executive Director, at amanda@aejmc.org. Thank you!
