Me, but I’m no longer a member. The dues are set to assume employers will pay. That leaves out part-time people, disability studies faculty, and the un/underemployed.

As to the anonymity, one argument is that admin and senior university staff could retaliate if an AHEAD member critiqued their employer’s policies. A related view is that members need to get advice without saying they need advice because needing or even wanting advice can be stigmatized as an expression of ignorance or insecurity.

Does anyone else have as much difficulty with AHEAD's anonymous posting policy on its listserv as I do?
