<p><span style='color:black'>ATHEN members would certainly welcome a way to
renew their memberships when registering for the Accessing Higher Ground
conference. This needs to be as simple a process as possible. The
form used last year was a bit confusing to individuals trying to register for
the conference, become members AND calculate the discount. If I recall from
last year, changes to the form should be fairly easy to make - it's a
matter of how the information is presented. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='color:black'>It may be too cumbersome for institutions to renew
using the conference form. I recommend information on the form directing
Institutional Members (and those interested in becoming Institutional Memebers)
to contact the Membership Coordinator directly. On the registration form there
needs to be a way for attendees from Institutional Members to indicate this.
This issue should be alleviated by the proposed bylaw change regarding a set
membership year. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='color:black'>Let me know if you'd like me to take a look at the
draft form. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>Hello All:</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>This message is in particular for Ron, Dan, Pratik and the other
executive officers. At CSUN, we talked about the possibility of ATHEN members
renewing their memberships via AHG. In the past, interested attendees can sign
up and pay for ATHEN membership through conference registration. Since they
then receive a discount from the conference, it’s obviously an encouragement
for them to sign up at the time of registering since the conference savings
almost pays for the membership.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>AT CSUN, we talked about expanding this to membership renewal. We
could do this by changing the item “ATHEN Professional Membership” to “ATHEN
Professional Membership, including ATHEN membership renewal” – or perhaps
something more eloquent I or someone can come up with later. One issue with
this is that only individual membership is offered through the AHG registration
at this time. Are there other options that should be made available? I’m
currently working on how the registration form for AHG will look in paper and
on the Web, so I can incorporate any changes once I hear back.</span><span
