The
term “member” refers to a current subscriber to the publication of the
Society: ESOP. Membership categories
are as follows: 1) Regular; 2) Contributing; 3) Patron; 4) Life; and 5)
Honorary. A person or an organization may, if they so choose, subscribe to ESOP
and not be considered a member of the Society. The
Board of Directors of the Epigraphic Society may, from time to time, recognize
outstanding achievement by an individual by declaring that individual to be a
Fellow of the Epigraphic Society. This is a reward for merit and no additional
benefits accrue. Membership
does not include the right to vote. Voting members consist solely of the members
of the Board of Directors of the Epigraphic Society, excluding Honorary Board
members. DisclaimerThe Epigraphic Society has no chapters.
At one time, in the early years of the Society, independent chapters were
formed by individuals who stated that they had goals similar to those of
our Society. The founder of
the Society, Dr. Barry Fell, made it clear that these organizations were
completely separate and independent organizations and could not speak or
act for The Epigraphic Society, although he was willing to list them in
the publication in case subscribers might wish to contact an independent
local organization. We reaffirm that position. While members are free to
establish their own regional societies or special-purpose organizations
with their own organizational structure and publications to deal with
their particular needs, they are not to claim affiliation with the
Epigraphic Society, use the Society’s mailing list, or use material
published by the Epigraphic Society without the permission of the authors,
and the Editor. The Epigraphic Society bears no responsibility whatsoever
for the actions or stated opinions of other societies, organizations, or
individuals, that may claim to act or speak in the name of the Epigraphic
Society. For More Information Contact:
