One way for members to find community through NAS is to connect with the affiliate nearest to you. We have affiliates in 46 states, and the District of Columbia. (We also have a “sister organization” in Canada, the Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship.) Many of them hold meetings and events where you can meet other NAS members, network, and share your voice.
[Note: the City University of New York Association of Scholars (CUNYAS) is technically a chapter of the New York Association of Scholars (NYAS).]
You can get in touch with any affiliate by contacting its president. All affiliate presidents are listed by state below. For states an affiliate president, Glenn Ricketts is listed as the contact. If you are interested in becoming an affiliate president, write us!
