Membership News

The new infusion of student lifetime members has blurred the lines between lifetime and annual PTAA membership. Because we want to offer the same benefits to all members of the PTAA, and not segregate based on membership type, we have decided to discontinue the annual membership option. All members will automatically be placed on a lifetime-track. Any dues paid to date for annual membership will be applied towards your lifetime membership. If you have the resources and desire to support the PTAA efforts by paying off the balance of your lifetime dues, please do so. If you are considering joining the PTAA, do not be discouraged by the $150 lifetime dues; please send what you can when you can. Every dollar we receive allows us to continue our mission to serve the PT graduates of UTHSCSA and insure the long-term viability of our association. If you have questions about what you have paid or lifetime membership, contact us at ptaa@uthscsa.edu. Current lifetime members (as of May ‘06) will receive their Lifetime Member Gold Pin (pictured below) at the August 11-12, 2006 reunion’ s pinning ceremony or the next event they attend.
