I agree this would be a great topic for the Members Forum. Since someone on
this list was kind enough to inform us (since HQ didn't) that the dues were
going up it is still an appropriate place for comment.  

I personally would have expected to see an appropriate communication from HQ
announcing the increase.  If I missed it, I apologize.  If it wasn't sent
out ... bad communication....

While some non-ARMA members may use the delete key on the topic, some may
use the increase as a reason not to join the association and unfortunately,
some may not renew because of it.

Out chapter board may have reduced our chapter dues ($30.00) to round out
the increase at $200.

Subject: Re: [RM] ARMA dues increasing July 1.

I would like to suggest that this be moved to the ARMA Member Forum /
NetCom area of the My ARMA section of the ARMA website. I don't have a
problem discussing this on RECMGMT-L, but I suspect members of
RECMGMT-L who are not ARMA members would not appreciate a week's worth
of debate here.

The topic was on the agenda and outside of a comment by Bill Benedon,
there were no comments presented to me or any Board member.
