Active members pay dues of $20 per year. An eight-member Coordinating Council, drawn from active members, governs the organization. USI Retirees publishes a semi-annual newsletter, Vintage Times (edited thus far by Sherrianne Standley and Sherry Darrell), and communicates with members through postal and email addresses and a website accessible through USI's homepage. This organization works closely with the USI Foundation, which provides staff support.
Typically USI retirees meet several times each year for programs and social gatherings, including pizza at the beginnings of fall and spring semesters, lunch at the Kennel Club in February (sponsored by the USI Foundation), various educational programs led by retirees or community experts, and an August reception at the University Home arranged by President Linda Bennett. The annual general meeting always occurs on the second Tuesday in November, with dues for active members due by that meeting.
For further information, see names and email addresses for Coordinating Council members.
