STERLING MEMBERS


Sterling Membership in RMMLA is a relatively new, but very important category of membership, one that honors long-term members of RMMLA "who have made significant contributions to any of the fields of language, literature, or related areas of the humanities; who have performed long-term meritorious service to RMMLA, especially by service on the RMMLA Executive Board.

These members have contributed to the growth and success of convention sessions and programs, to the association�s scholarly journal, and to other important association activities. Sterling members receive all benefits of regular membership in RMMLA, along with a permanent waiver of membership dues.
