2009-2010 Dues

Dear faculty, staff, and graduate students in the economics department,

You are all members of the Graduate Economics Club! We run the department's social events (happy hours on the first and third Thursdays of every month, and the skit party right before winter break). We hope you will enjoy this year's events and help us fund them by paying your dues (a suggested donation of $35).

There are two ways to pay:

1. Write a check payable to "Graduate Economics Club" and put it in Rohit Lamba's mailbox.

2. Send money through the Paypal link below.

Thanks!
