Membership and Participation

We must not confuse being a former student with being a member of the Association of Former Students. To belong to the Association is a free act, no one can be obliged to belong to it. This statement, even though it is a statement of common sense, must be made. In many schools in our area, activities are organized, centered around those who are graduating, like farewell celebrations, for example. Annual celebrations are held for these people and there are occasional meetings for those from a particular graduated class. There is no objection to these activities, but one should remember that those who participate in them may be associates or not.

Support the Association financially.

Registered members

Observers

Support the Association by their presence at particular activities, but are not involved in any other way.

Supporting Members

Have the ideals at heart; they support activities and encourage those who make them possible, but they aren’t committed to the Association.

Committed Members

Our full-fledged members, they are active and willing to be involved in formation processes, to accept responsibilities within the Association, and to accept commitment to our Shared Mission.
