What is the dues structure?
When you receive your statement, the individual amount for the national, constituent and component organizations are shown on separate lines. You will also note that the statement includes special assessments mandated by the organizations, voluntary contributions to state and national political action groups or charities (such as the Governor’s Club, Dent-IL-PAC and the Clopper Foundation and to the Relief and Emergency disaster fund). The cost of association and Society monthly publications is included in the membership dues. Members may not exclude the cost of publications from the mandatory dues rate. Individual publication costs are listed on the invoices. The subscription cost of the CDS Review is $17; student dues are not applied towards the CDS Review.
