Changes to SCS Dues RatesPosted Tue, 01/23/2024 - 12:33 in SCS Announcements. We hope to see many of you again in Philadelphia next year (2-5 January 2025), and urge you to renew your membership now if you haven’t done so already, as dues rates are scheduled to rise on February 1st. The SCS Board of Directors voted unanimously to change the dues rates at their meeting in Chicago earlier this month. In awareness of the economic challenges our lower-salaried members face, the new dues structure does not raise rates at all, or only by very little, for these members. |
