SAMPLE

Membership Campaign For
State and National Associatins

Membership cards for state associatim, and sample publications of
both state and national associations were secureds

Faculty member met with student representatives of freshman, sophomore,
junior, and senior classes to:

ae Plan presentation of membership campaign to classese

be Arrange for time to present campaign to each classe

Student representatives met class groups, explaining purposes, publi-
cations, etc. of each organization, stressing professional advantages
in affiliating with professional organizationg, and announcing dues,
and time and place provided for paying dues.

Student committees planned:

ae Bulletin board material for publicizing memberships received from
each class group. (A thermometor shoed growth toward 100%
membership from each of the four classes in both the state and
national associations. This was ketp up-to-date as memberships
came in and the percentage of each class joining the associations
was shown through the mounting "mercury" in the poster representing
thermometor readings.)

Be Time and place for receiving dues from students.
Students selected to receive dues were scheduled for one hour each
of the four days of the campaign. These students recorded receipts
with the names and addresses of members, and kept the bulletin
board announcements of the progress of the campaign up to date.
Money received was deposited at the end of the hour with a faculty
member. A desk was set up in the front hall of the gymnasium for
the four mornings of the campaign. Dues were paid there.

The campaign was carried on for four days by the students. Because

the students felt that those major students who had not joined during
their four day campaign should be next approached through faculty members,
the remainder of the campaign was placed in the hands of a member of the
staff of the Department of Health and Physical Education. This steff
member completed the campaign for membership in state and national
associations by:

1. Announcing to students that those who felt they could not join
either association should see their faculty advisor explaining
heir reasons; this was to avoid pusing students further who could
not afford to join.
2. Giving each faculty member of the departmmt, and each faculty
member who was serving as a student or class advisor, the list
of students who had not joined either association asking her to
see these students individually and to urge them to join if possible.
3. Receiving membership dues as they were turned in and sending these
to state and national associations.
