BY-LAW CHANGE
RECOMMENDED CHANGE TO THE NWA BY LAWS ARTICLE III

The proposed change to the By Laws would remove specific mention of student dues. This proposed change would allow separation of student membership from regular membership dues permitting the Council to set student rates as desired. 

 

The second paragraph of Article III  currently reads (highlighted section would be deleted): 

Annual dues shall be set by the Council; student member dues will be one-half of the regular rate. Dues owed to the Association nationally shall be collected by the Executive Director as directed by the Association Treasurer.

 

The recommended change reads as follows:  Annual dues shall be set by the Council. Dues owed to the Association nationally shall be collected by the Executive Director as directed by the Association Treasurer.
