SUNYCAP Membership Drive

Greetings to all:

Last year was a record year for membership, SUNY colleges across all sectors represented by becoming members of the organization that is for us. As we move into a new membership year I look forward to returning and new membership. I therefore encourage SUNYCAP members to renew their membership and also invite non-members to join an organization which provides a number of professional development opportunities! Don’t forget that as the 39th Annual SUNYCAP Conference, which will be in the beautiful Lake Placid, approaches members are also eligible to apply for SUNYCAP grants and scholarships. SUNYCAP is a professional organization devoted to the issues and concerns facing today’s admissions professionals, as well as the promotion and success of the State University of New York. What does a SUNYCAP membership provide?

A SUNYCAP membership provides:

1. A wide range of professional development activities including grant and scholarship opportunities to help members attend the annual SUNYCAP conference, as well as other state and national conferences.
2. The opportunity to work with your SUNY colleagues on committees and special event programs.
3. Promotion of SUNY through service to the high school counseling community.
4. A clearinghouse and forum for ideas and issues facing public higher education in New York State.
5. Subscription to the Endeavors newsletter and SUNYCAP listserv.
Institutional discounts for attending Operation Inform and New Professionals Orientation.

For your convenience, the membership form can be found on the SUNYCAP website. Please visit http://www.sunycap.com. (under “Membership”, click on “SUNYCAP Application Form”), print the form and mail your membership to:

Ms. Lisa Thompson
Office of Undergraduate Admissions
The College at Brockport
350 New Campus Drive
Brockport, NY 14420

The cost for a Single Membership is $30.00 per person, per year. We also offer an Institutional Membership which covers membership for five admission professionals for a total cost of $140.00 per year. Either way, joining SUNYCAP is a sound investment!

On behalf of the entire SUNYCAP Executive Board, I extend thanks to those of you who have already renewed your membership. To those of you who are joining us for the first time, we look forward to you becoming involved in this worthwhile organization!

Sincerely
Lisa Thompson
