ARAM FELLOWSHIP

"There shall be two classes of Membership in the ARAM Society for
Syro-Mesopotamian/Fertile Crescent Studies. There shall be a category of
Membership known as `Fellowship Members', which shall consist of any member
of the general public who has an interest in Syro-Mesopotamian studies, 
and who pays the dues established for this category on a regular basis and 
is otherwise in good standing with the Society. There shall also be a category
of Membership known as `Academic Members', which shall consist of professors,
teachers and other scholars in the field of Syro-Mesopotamian studies, who 
pay the dues established for this category on a regular basis and are 
otherwise in good standing with the Society. Except as otherwise noted,
any reference herein to the `Members' shall refer to the total of Fellowship
Members plus Academic Members, without distinguishing between these two
classes." (Constitution of ARAM, Section 1).

Any person over the age of 18 who is in sympathy with the objectives of ARAM
may apply in writing to the Central Committee for membership of the 
Fellowship of ARAM; and as an academic society, ARAM gives in its 
constitution a special privilege to its Academic Members, whose agreement
on any decision at the Annual Meeting is final and binding. 
Every member should be aware of the academic non-political identity of
ARAM, which "has the right to terminate a person's membership if that 
person in the reasonable opinion of the Central Committee either: uses 
the Society for any political purpose; does not respect the non-denominational
or inter-religious identity of the Society; behaves indecently or immorally
at the meetings of the Society; or uses his or her membership in the Society
or the name of the Society for any commercial or financial profit or benefit."
(Constitution of ARAM, Section 1).

Every member of the Fellowship is required to attend the Annual Meeting of
the Society to be held during the yearly Conference of the Society, or as 
the Central Committee of ARAM may designate. A member of ARAM has also the 
right to attend all meetings of the Fellowship and should take part in their
decisions and activities.

Benefits of membership are free subscription to the ARAM Newsletter and 
reduced admission fees for all ARAM activities.
