I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who sent
in a dues payment. We currently have 162 individual members and
27 institutional members. Of the 162 individual members, 60 have
paid sustaining member dues of $30 or more. The lists of
institutional members and sustaining members are on pages
32–33. If you have not yet sent in your dues for
2001–2002, you can still do so with the membership form on
page 32. Please check the list of institutional members. If
your school is not listed, you might want to remind your
department chair.

The Michigan Section’s current bank balance is $7,680.42, which includes $2,280 committed to the Section’s Project NExT. Last year’s balance was $10,169 which included the grant for Project NExT. Income from payments from vendors at the annual meeting has been lower than in previous years, and the cost for production of the Section’s Newsletter has been increasing. I believe it can still be said that the financial health of the Section is satisfactory.
