Post subject:  Membership Options for Students

I've come to know in recent revelations the increasing cost of museum memberships. There have been previous threads addressing this matter but I'd like to address this from a youth perspective. I love working with preservation groups, helping museums around my area but when it costs me a boatload to just get through my average college year why would I want to spend 50 in some cases almost $60 on an annual due. Some operations particularly those based on young volunteers have reduced rates to compensate for this, what does your organization offer in return? Can a solution be met half-way?

Our student membership has been $7.50/year since forever. It's likely to go up a bit soon, though. Even at $7.50, I'm not aware of many student members. Orrville/Wayne County, OH and environs is mostly rural so membership is always a bit of a struggle.
