Membership Categories and Dues for 2008/2009


An individual may join the LSA as a regular member, or as a student member if he or she is enrolled as a student at a college or university. Regular or student membership is for a calendar year, payable in advance in US dollars only. One may also join or renew as a Life Member, which eliminates the need for future dues payments. Approximately 75% of membership dues goes to the production of Language and eLanguage. Note that all memberships purchased today (other than Life Memberships) are valid through 31 December 2009. A $10 fee will be assessed on all memberships with non-U.S. addresses to cover additional postal expenses.

Student Memberships:

  New Members: $30 (Special welcome rate!)
  Returning/renewing Members: $45

Regular Memberships:

  New or Returning Members: $110

Life Memberships: $1500, payable in two equal annual installments.

Members who have maintained 40 years of continuous membership are eligible for a Complimentary Life Membership. Members who have maintained 20 years of continuous membership and who have retired from the regular exercise of the profession may be eligible for Emeritus Status. For further information, please contact membership@lsadc.org.

Note: Prior issues of Language will no longer be mailed automatically to new or returning members who join after 1 July each year. These members will have the option of purchasing prior issues separately. For further information, please contact membership@lsadc.org.
