The Communication and Information Technology section of the American Sociological Association is having a membership drive, with Sept 20 the cut-off date. If you're an ASA member, section membership is free. Otherwise, it is low cost. Join us - we take mobile seriously.

ASA's Section on Communications and Information Technologies is running a
student membership drive right now. Students who are already ASA members
are eligible for a FREE CITASA membership! Just fill out the online form
at the following address to receive a free section membership:

http://tinyurl.com/CITASA-freestudent

The deadline is September 20th for requesting a free membership. Please
note: we can only provide the free section memberships, so the student
must already be a member of the ASA, but that is true for all students who
attended the annual meetings in San Francisco already.

As background, the number of panels that we get as a section at each ASA
is directly determined by section membership. Thus, each membership is
important to maintaining a vibrant space for research on communications
and technology. If we can get about 40-50 students to request free section
memberships (which is not unusual), we are likely to go over the 400
member mark for the first time in our history and get an additional
session at the 2015 ASAs!

Also we are creating a section that will foster more work in Media
Sociology, which includes creating more space and opportunities for those
scholars to share their work. So, we really hope you will forward this to
any student who might be eligible and implore them to fill out this online
form.

Thanks so much for your help in this effort!

Sincerely,


Barry Wellman and
