Dear Michele,
 
Thank you for being a member of the American Nuclear Society! Your membership has helped ANS flourish. Our public policy advocacy voice is stronger than ever, and our visible presence as a leader in the international nuclear community has grown.
 
Our membership includes almost 11,000 nuclear professionals working in every facet of nuclear science and technology. We embrace 83 Local and Student Sections worldwide.
 
This solid base makes ANS a powerful advocate for the future of nuclear. We effectively use our collective voices to shape the current and future discussions of nuclear and we promote positive and productive public discourse. With members like you, ANS will continue to help the world understand the benefits that nuclear science and technology bring to everyday lives.
 
As the premier professional organization for nuclear scientists, technicians, educators, and students, ANS is actively working for you through many programs and services. Here are just
a few:
  • Center for Nuclear Science and Technology Information – ANS's public outreach initiative includes the Congressional Seminar Series, teacher workshops, and youth programs. We maintain a presence in Washington DC, and interact with policy makers and legislative staff on a regular basis.
  • Digital Nuclear Library – ANS provides members with a repository of all digital ANS content. Expanded search options mean that it is easier than ever to browse broad topics or quickly find a niche subject.
  • First Look – Thanks to this digital platform implementation, research articles in ANS journals are now available digitally months before their print publication. You get the most topical research as soon as possible.
  • ANS.org Online Member Experience – With recent technical upgrades, you can now maintain a single log-in and manage your account. More upgrades are scheduled in the coming year that will further enhance your online experience.
  • Scholarship Program – We support and encourage the next generation of nuclear professionals by providing over $150,000 in scholarships each year.
Personally, I was a relatively uninvolved member for many years before I started taking a more active role in ANS national activities. It was only after this experience that I truly gained an appreciation for everything that ANS does. I take pride in and find exceptional value in ANS membership. I encourage you to get involved and explore and take advantage of the many benefits of your membership. I also ask you to discuss your ANS membership with your colleagues and encourage them to join us.  More members mean we can be even more effective in our vital outreach activities.
 
The world needs nuclear, nuclear needs ANS, and ANS needs you. I look forward to working for you in 2016.
 
Sincerely,
 
President Grecheck
 
Eugene S. Grecheck
President
