The newly reorganized membership committee has been very busy. We have settled on four areas to concentrate our efforts this year. First, we are in the process of personally contacting all tumor section members that have not paid their 2022 membership dues. If you fall into this category, please take a little effort to pay those dues and be an up-to-date member of our Section.

Our second task is to re-evaluate the process of adjudicating member survey requests. Each year a number of requests are sent to the Tumor Section leadership to ask to send surveys to our members. In order to prevent our members from being continuously inundated with frequent surveys we want to limit these surveys to only the most important and potentially beneficial for our Section. We are examining equitable criteria to choose which surveys demonstrate the highest merit in this regard. Any input from Section members would be appreciated.

Finally, we are exploring ways to maximize Tumor Section member benefits and value. We are also thinking of ways to expand our membership to groups that have not been traditionally part of our group. We would appreciate member input on both of these goals.
