New dues set by the trustees

Following Dr. Dick Tuckers suggestions, all members of the trustees meeting voted unanimously for one single membership fee of 130 US$ for all active and associate members of the academy.

This will simplify the treasurers work enormously and will set the academy on sound financial foundations for the tasks in the coming years.

Kevin Doyle , the treasurer of the Tucker academy said :" It is great that all the trustees voted for just one general fee for all members. It makes my work so much easier. This is a milestone in the history of the Academy. And we are still way below the membership fees of the other academies."

This fee includes all membership rights, the subscription of all Lineangle issues and one free copy of the Journal of the Operative dentistry.

Members who don't want to receive their free JOD copy for any reason, please let the secretary know, their copy can be given to dental schools or other institutions connected with the Tucker academy.

The new academy fee is effective from 2009/2010 period on. Individual mails to the clubs will be send by the president soon.
