If you think the information in the membership files is out of date (email addresses seem especially volatile), please provide the new information. Graduate students qualify for a reduced membership fee - only $5. Emeretus members pay no fee. Otherwise a one-year regular membership is $15 USD; a two-year membership is $25 USD. All checks must be in USD; payment by Visa/Mastercard is welcome. Credit card payments can be sent electronically. (As far as we understand this is relatively safe -- as safe as the postal service, maybe safer -- since everything is automatically encrypted.) Please indicate on the form if i) you want the ISHPSSB Newsletter sent to you electronically, and ii) you want to subscribe to the Society's email list (for monthly announcements and virtual general meetings on the year between conferences).
