Hello, Everyone! Miggy Torres here, reminding you that it's that time of year again! Ah yes, the sight of no schedules on the practice room doors, the feeling of a blank recital punch-card in your pocket, and the smell of freshly sharpened pencils wafts through the air. That's right: it's ACDA Membership time! New Members If you're new to ACDA, then welcome! If you love all things choral, then we encourage you to join the Ithaca College Student Chapter of the American Choral Directors Association! If you've never heard of us before, and want a quick overview of who we are and what we do, check out the About IC ACDA section of our site. If you're still unsure about joining, head over to the Why Join? page for myriad reasons why IC ACDA is the best thing since sliced bread. Still have questions? Feel free to Contact Us electronically or talk to one of our super-awesome Officers in person! We're all really friendly and would love to answer any questions you may have about ACDA. If you're interested in joining, come by the music office during the first couple weeks of school! We'll be set up right outside of it, and we'll help you with the registration process! Renewing Your membership As most returning members know, your ACDA Student membership last one (that's 1) year, but that's okay, because the awesome guys and gals over at acda.org have made it super-easy for returning members to renew their memberships! All you have to do is go to their website, acda.org, and hit the big LOGIN button on the upper right-hand corner of the page. To log in you'll need a username and password. The password is the easy bit, it should be the member number listed on you ACDA Membership Card that was mailed to you when you registered the first time. You can also find it on the address label of your Choral Journals. The username is still simple, but it takes a little thinking. Your user name should be your first name, and underscore, and then your last name. So for example for me, my username would be Miggy_Torres. If you have a nickname or shortened name—like me—then it's whatever name you gave them when you registered with them last time. If you're having trouble logging in, or maybe you have no idea what your member number is or something like that, then please email Leane Defrancis at ldefrancis@acda.org for username and password/member number retrieval. She usually gets back to you within a couple of days, often even sooner. Once you're logged in, click the big RENEW link in the upper right-hand corner of the page. From there, simply fill out the information and submit it. Your membership will be automatically renewed! It's that easy! If you're not comfortable with the online method, feel free to download and mail in a membership form and mail it to ACDA, or speak with one of your friendly neighborhood ACDA Officers during our membership drive, during the first couple weeks of the school year. We'll get you on the right track! Seven (that's 7) Tips to help you get the most out of your membership! 1. Write down all essential membership info!
Be sure to write down all important membership information someplace you'll remember like in your daily planner or on your phone or computer. That way, when it comes time to renew your membership, you'll have easy-access to all your info. Especially important are your Member Number—which should be written on your ACDA Membership Card or on the address label of your Choral Journal— and your ACDA.org username—which is generally your first and last names, separated by an underscore. So for example, for me it'd be Miggy_Torres. Graduating? Moving? New email or phone number? Don't forget to let ACDA know! You can manage your contact info by clicking "Edit Personal Information" on ACDA.org! If your address changes frequently—changing dorms every year, etc.—we recommend giving ACDA a permanent address so you don't have to keep changing it all the time. Just remember, whatever address you give us, that's where your Choral Journals will be sent. 2. Explore all the online benefits ACDA has to offer! There are myriad benefits and perks that you get for being an ACDA member. A lot of those are online! Below are just a few examples of some online features that you can only get through ACDA.
