However, the ACS Student Association at my school does, and they get a budget from the Chemistry Department yearly from sales of Gen Chem lab manuals. So in essence my school does pay membership dues. But what the ACS SA spends the money on is totally up to them, and they spend it on that for certain students as well as a lot of other stuff.

That way the school covers the membership for me. I was thinking of joining but I’ll hold out until I go to a national meeting. That way the school covers the membership for me.
