MEMBERSHIP CATEGORIES. The Society for Romanian Studies has two types of membership: 1) Voting Membership, and 2) Free Non-Voting Graduate Student Membership.
VOTING MEMBERSHIPS are $15 a year Voting members receive the calendar year issues of the newsletter, membership in the SRS eMail list, and can vote in SRS elections. Memberships are limited to persons with a North American mailing address.
GRADUATE STUDENT MEMBERSHIP is free to all full-time graduate students with a North American mailing address. Graduate student members receive the same stuff as voting members but are not eligible to vote in SRS elections. (Individuals in the graduate student category who wish to be vote may do so by paying the regular $15 membership above.)
Dues are payable on a calendar year basis. Graduate student members please note: Though your membership is free, you will need to confirm your graduate status by the end of January each year to remain on the lists. You will continue in this status to the end of the calendar year even if you graduate by summer or take a full time position. Please provide the same information below requested of voting members.
LIFETIME MEMBERSHIPS: For $150, you can become a lifetime member of the SRS and avoid those nagging feelings of guilt over not having paid your dues recently. If this option appeals to you, send $150 to Jim Augerot with the appropriate notation.
JOINT MEMBERSHIP: North American voting members of the SRS may opt for a $33 Joint SRS/SEESA Membership, which includes membership in both the Society for Romanian Studies and the South East European Studies Association (separate memberships are $45 so you save $12 with joint membership). Joint members get both the SRS and SEESA newsletters as well as the SEESA journal, BALKANISTICA. (For SEESA, see the South East European Studies Association (SEESA) Web Site. For more information on BALKANISTICA, check the the BALKANISTICA Web Site). And you only need to send one check to Jim Augerot---your one-stop power shopping site for Romanian and South East European Studies. Is this a great professional association or what?
Can LIFE MEMBERS and non-voting GRADUATE STUDENT MEMBERS get a joint SRS/SEESA Membership? Yes! You, too, can take advantage of the joint SRS-SEESA membership by sending in an additional $22 with the notation that this is for SEESA membership. This saves you a few bucks.
Owing to expense, postal complications, and mailing delays, membership in the SRS is restricted to North American mailing addresses only. Interested persons outside of North America are welcome to supply an eMail address if they wish to receive the SRS NEWSLETTER and other SRS bulletins in electronic form free of charge. Current copies of the NEWSLETTER may also be found on this web site. For additional information about the SRS eMail List, check here.
Dues payments for voting SRS membership or for joint SRS-SEESA memberships should be sent to SRS Treasurer Jim Augerot, Slavic Department, Box 353580, University of Washington, Seattle WA 98195, indicating which category you are eligible for. Non-voting graduate student memberships are free, but please certify to Jim your graduate status and institution as well as field(s) of interest. (You may do this by eMail.)

Last Name, First Name, Institution, FAX, eMail address, Mailing Address (City, State, ZIP), Home Phone, Office Phone, membership category ($15 for regular voting memberships; free for non-voting graduate student memberships along with certification of your graduate student status and institution).Also, we would appreciate an indication of your position and interests.
