To achieve this the membership may establish bylaws limiting attendance. I n order to limit overall conference attendance, and to assure representation from a greater number of organizations, the maximum number of registrants from any organization is sixteen. Further, at least half of all representatives from organizations sending more than one representative are expected to participate on the program. In other words, the ratio of participants to attendees from any one organization sending two or more representatives is expected to be at least one to one. In addition, registration costs would be reduced to one-half for emeritus members.
Emeritus status is granted by the organizers of the conference upon request of an eligible member.
