Membership Counts The Organized Sections Committee oversees policies related to Organized Sections and 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 2005, a Section would be excluded from the 2006 Program Committee.) The Section typically have one year to reach the 250 member level, and will be listed on the APSA Membership Renewal form with an asterisk indicating the threshold is below the minimum number. If the Section does not reach 250 members in any quarter during the 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 spending 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.
