Dear KACA members and friends:
We hope that you are successfully wrapping up your semester.
The KACA membership drive for 2010 is now underway. Please renew your current membership or become a new member of KACA.
As announced earlier, we adopted a new membership dues structure. The annual student membership fee ($10) remains the same, but there are now four categories for faculty members: regular ($20), silver ($40), gold ($70), and platinum (at least $100). Silver, gold, and platinum members will be recognized as such in all KACA publications. All of the additional income generated from these new membership categories will be maintained separately from KACA’s general operating account and used to support graduate student members in various venues, including scholarship, paper awards, and program support. Platinum members may contribute their membership dues to the graduate student program fund or to a special fund of their choice. Some popular choices may include a young scholars award fund, KACA graduate representative scholarship, and a research award in honor of someone you designate. These special funds will normally be spent during the membership year during which the funds are created.

The number of KACA RSS feed subscribers is increasing, but the percentage of using RSS Readers (or Aggregators) is small. About 80 percent of subscribers are using e-mail.
Considering the number of our members, the number of subscribers is quite substantial.
