The recruitment campaign ASME started in August has brought in a total of $11,198.00 as of Jan. 31 and for the entire month of January raised $1,051.50.

Through this campaign, 50 percent of a new member's first-year dues will be given to scholarships for mechanical engineering students. To participate, new members must be recruited by an ASME member.

Scholarships are awarded to ASME student members based on their scholastic ability and potential contribution to the mechanical engineering profession. All ASME student members in good standing at the time of scholarship application are eligible to apply.

Scholarships are reviewed and recipients identified by the Scholarship Selection Committee and approved by the ASME Board on Engineering Education.

A total of 223 new members have joined since the program began last summer, 25 of whom enrolled in January.

Overall, 197 members have taken part in this recruitment program by sponsoring a new member.
