Membership in SPA
While specifically serving the graduate community in SUPA, SPA welcomes membership from any interested undergraduate or graduate student at UTArlington. The membership period spans the long academic term. (For example, the current membership period is Fall 2006 + Spring 2007). Dues are $20 per academic year and because of the purposes to which these revenues are put (see below), the entire amount will be charged regardless of when during the term the membership begins. Hardship exceptions will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
SPA membership benefits include:
- - An annual membership token (e.g., t-shirt, tote bag, or whatever we can afford in a given year). These collectibles will not be sold to non-members.
- - Eligibility to apply for financial support for attending planning- or other urban affairs-related conference(s). The amount of the subsidy will vary depending on the budget and the demand for these funds.
- - Invitation at no cost to SPA events at which non-members may be asked to pay an admission fee to defray event expenses.
