The program was developed with professors who want to encourage professional identity and journal access for students in a national organization that embraces best practices and unwavering standards in excellent service for people with disabilities.
The package works like this:
Professors can either assign TASH membership as one would a text book or package of readings, or can offer it as an option. Either way, students receive substantially discounted rates. The discount amount increases as the number of students signing up increases. Students can pay rates as low as $35/year.
UP to 9 students: $45 per student (TASH’s lowest individual rate)
9 – 19 students: $40 per student (must be submitted together)
20+ students: $35 per student (must be submitted together)
Student journal packages are shipped together to the professor’s address.
Regardless of how many students join, students will start the semester with a year’s worth of cutting edge research on their shelf and can build their collection over the years to come. Under this plan, students receive all of the regular membership benefits during the coming year — in addition to an extra full year’s worth of journals!
An introduction to TASH is likely to be one of the most valued resources you can offer students as they enter the disability community in their professional capacities. To learn more about TASH’s Student Membership Program, contact Najia Gainous at 202-540-9020, ngainous@tash.org.
