PROFESSORS TO RAISE DUES
September 9, 1996
Members of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC) voted last month to hike the organization's dues, effective Oct. 1, 1997. Annual fees for PR and communications faculty members will rise to $85 from the current $70. Dues for members outside of the United States will go from $55 to $65.
The increase was proposed to cover the group's rent, which previously had been provided free of charge by the University of South Carolina, where AEJMC is based. AEJMC is the professional organization accrediting university programs in journalism, mass communication and public relations. (AEJMC, 803/777-2005)
