ASME formally requested a dues reduction due to PSEC’s event cancellations. 2 or 3 other societies have discussed this possibility. Attendees discussed this at length noting that PSEC does have other expenses other than major events. One proposal was to continue this year’s dues collection and reduce next years dues. ASME agreed to pay this years dues and wait for a final decision from PSEC. Attendees agreed to defer a final decision on this until the May or June meeting.
