Fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic is nothing to celebrate—but in these challenging times, we must take heart where and when we can. For this reason, on behalf of your Association Leadership, NIRSA has been able to provide a membership fee waiver for lapsed members facing financial hardship due to COVID-19.

“We know that many NIRSA member schools across the continent are facing substantial cuts to professional development budgets. Furloughs, intermittent closures, and reductions to staff hours are realities facing many of our colleagues, whose support and ideas are treasured by the NIRSA family,” says Brent Harrison, Associate Director for Recreation Programs at the University of Oregon and NIRSA Foundation President. “For some established members whose membership has lapsed since the pandemic hit in March, renewal may not have been an option under current circumstances. So, we’re thrilled to have worked in concert with the NIRSA Board to find an opportunity to hopefully keep many of our colleagues in the fold,” Brent adds.
