| Qualifications
for Student Membership: Any individual who is planning to be a teacher
qualifies for student membership. The individual does not have to be
enrolled in a school of education. Individuals who are enrolled at community
colleges or technical schools are eligible for student membership.
Individuals are not eligible for student membership if the student is eligible in another membership category or if the student was ever eligible as a result of his/her employment as a teacher. If the student was a former teacher, s/he can join as a Reserve member but not a student member. Subbing: If the student is under an employment contract as a substitute teacher, the student is not eligible to be a student member. If not under an employment contract, a student can be a student member and also substitute teach but the liability will not cover the student as a sub unless subbing is a requirement for college graduation. Organizers and advisors should let students know that students who are doing a great deal of subbing (even if they are not under an employment contract) would be better served by joining as a sub rather than as a student member. Students must be a member of the campus on which they are enrolled. For example, if a student lives in New Mexico but attends college in Texas, the student will be a member of the Texas chapter. It also doesn't matter where the student is doing student-teaching. The students do not become members of the active local where they are student teaching.
