The Ruth Becker
Adjunct Conference Registration Fee Waiver

          The Florida Developmental Education Association (FDEA) recognizes the importance of adjunct instructors and their participation in the community of developmental education. Accordingly, FDEA has instituted a waiver to cover 100% of conference fee for adjuncts joining FDEA or renewing their FDEA membership. The adjunct faculty members must be from Institutional Membership schools. This Adjunct Conference Registration Fee Waiver recognizes the significant contributions of adjunct instructors in Florida's educational system, and honors former FDEA President Ruth Becker, an advocate for adjunct faculty.

          Adjuncts from Institutional Membership schools may apply for this waiver by submitting an application for the fee waiver. A total of ten (10) fee waivers will be awarded as applications are received. Upon receipt of the application, applicants will be sent the fee waiver and they will submit this waiver with their conference registration form. Because any fee waiver awarded is to be used for conference registration, it is expected that member schools will support the attendance of adjuncts who apply for such a waiver, and may provide for any or all of the additional conference expenses.

          It is possible for more than one adjunct from each Institutional Membership school to apply for this fee waiver; however, the maximum number of fee waivers will be ten (10). The fee waiver application follows. Further details are available in DOC and PDF formats
