BSU-PRSSA FAQs
How much does PRSSA membership cost?
PRSSA dues are $65 per year. Forty-one dollars is sent to the national headquarters as national dues and $15 is kept locally to help the Ball State chapter. The local money is used for all activities this chapter plans. If you choose to join PRSSA, your money must be turned in by Feb. 15th.
When does PRSSA meet?
Meetings will be held every Wednesday at 5 p.m. in AJ 289. We realize some students are unable to attend the regular meetings, so additional activities will be scheduled on other days during the semester so everyone has an opportunity to get involved with the chapter. Members will be contacted about meetings and additional activities through e-mail and posted fliers.
How do I join?
To join PRSSA, please complete the membership form and return it with your $65 check made payable to PRSSA. You may turn it in to the Journalism Department office on the third floor of AJ. You may also hand deliver it to any of the PRSSA officers or to Assistant Professor Robert Pritchard in his office (AJ334).
