Class Membership

Join the Class of 1979!!
Every fall, you are encouraged to become a dues paying member of the Class of 1979. With all the mail you receive from Cornell, you may ask why do we collect class dues and where does the money go? It is important that you understand where your dues contribution is going.

By paying your Class of 1979 dues (covering the membership year from January to December), you contribute to:
  · Planning regional events
  · Supporting class communications and newsletters
  · Helping to fund class events between reunions
  · Lowering the cost of planning and attending reunions
  · Subscribing for a full year (6 issues) of the Cornell Alumni Magazine

Want to check if your online registration went through? You can check here. This list shows five-year payment history and your current eligibility for a discount on the 30th Reunion registration.

Dues notices are sent out in the fall, but you can pay at any time!! Current dues are:
· $50 – Regular Dues, including Cornell Alumni Magazine subscription.
· $60 – Couples (both Class of ‘79) includes one subscription.
· $30 – Dues only, NO subscription to Cornell Alumni Magazine
· $15 – Foreign postage surcharge for subscriptions outside U.S.

You can now pay your dues through one of the following methods:
(1) Online Dues Payment using Cornell's secure site - click on this link!

Since your membership dues only fund class operating expenses, these donations do not count as part of the Cornell Fund. Please participate in both, every year!

(2) Sign up for AUTOMATIC RENEWAL by paying with your credit card. This option is available on the dues website or by calling (607) 255-3021.

(3) Send us your dues check to Cornell by snail mail. Checks should be made out to "Class of 1979" and sent to:
