  Membership Point System :

                The point system is used as a record of each member's contribution to S.A.M. The more active the member is, the more points he or she earns. At the end of the year, the number of points each member earns may be used to determine the outstanding member of the year. The outstanding member will receive a plaque from the Radford Campus Chapter of the Society for the Advancement of Management, as well as having his or her name engraved on a plaque in the trophy case in Whitt Hall. Each member must earn a minimum of 10 points per semester to remain in good standing. Points are awarded as follows:

Note:

• Failure to attend a scheduled function at which attendance was expected will result in an equivalent number of points being subtracted (unless absence was cleared for good reason with the event coordinator).

        Event coordinators are reminded that a list containing the event name, date, and participating members should be turned over to the Vice President of Membership to assure that proper credit is given. Any member who agreed to attend, yet failed to do so, shall be marked as a "NO SHOW."

        Please keep in mind that the point system is only a record of how active each member is in this organization--it is not the only means of determining who the outstanding member will be. Everyone is encouraged to actively contribute to the organization. Your contribution to S.A.M. is extremely important--without your help, this organization could not exist.

Reminder:

• A minimum of 10 points per semester is required for a member to remain in good standing.

        These are just a few of the activities the executive staff of S.A.M. has planned for its' members this year. If you believe that membership in this organization can benefit you and help you attain your career goals, please fill out a membership application. Membership applications can be obtained at the office of Dr. "Fess" Green located at 111 Whitt Hall, by printing from here or by contacting Allen Dickens, V.P. of Membership.
