Student members are also eligible:

• To hold any appointive position in the Society
• To vote for officers, councilors, members of the nominating committee
• To vote on all matters requiring a vote which come before the Society as a whole
• To be members of constituent units of the Society
• To receive the benefits of the Society's programs and services.

(Please note: Individuals who select this option must mail, fax, or email proof of active enrollment (e.g., a dated copy of your student ID/enrollment receipt or a signed letter/email from your faculty advisor) before your membership application or renewal can be completed.)
