We have had a few members apply as students who are getting certificates from corporations (Cisco, Microsoft) The board does not consider those people to be students.

Is there some reason we're attempting to, or does this fall into the "fixing what's not broken" category?

That being said, I think as long as it is worded in such a way as to define student as "full time student", in fine with it. I think the intention of adding the student rate was that full time students tend to not have incomes, but benefit greatly from membership in the community. Nathan T.

Please let me know what you guys think. This shouldn't change the status of any current students but if it does, please let me know. We don't want to lose any members due to the changes. Student Member Policy: In order to qualify for student membership you must be a student at an accredited post secondary institution, including but not limited to: the University of Manitoba, the University of Winnipeg, and Red River College. Taking a certification course (for example Cisco, Microsoft) does not qualify you for student membership. If you feel your specific situation warrants student membership please bring it up with the board. Student membership may be granted at the boards discretion. _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/
