The Organized Sections Committee monitors Section size. If membership in a Section falls below 250 members for four consecutive quarters, the Committee will notify the Section that they will not be included as part of the next official Program Committee of the Annual Meeting which is then forming. (e.g. if notified in the summer of 2003, a Section would be excluded from the 2004 Program Committee.) The Section will then have one year to reach the 250 member level, and will be listed on the APSA Membership Renewal form with an asterisk indicating that this is the situation. If the Section does not reach 250 members in any given year, it will then be required to disband, and will face several options: merging with another Section, becoming a related group, or ceasing to function. If a Section merges with another, its remaining Treasury will go to that Section. If a Section disbands without merging, the expenditure of any remaining funds must be approved by the Organized Section Committee and the APSA Treasurer. If a Section which disbands wishes to return as an Organized Section, it may re-petition as a new Section. If reinstated, it would keep its original number and order in the Section listing. TOP |
