At the March 2026 annual meeting, MURA members approved two important Board proposals–an amendment to the MURA Constitution formalizing the option of complimentary MURA membership, and an increase in annual membership dues to $20, effective April 1, 2026. 

Want to invite someone to join MURA? Information on MURA membership, including the complimentary annual membership option, can be found on the MURA membership page.

Already a MURA annual member?  You may be eligible for the “upgrade to life” option.  We will apply up to five years of annual dues toward your life membership dues. For example, if you have paid five years of annual dues at $12.50, your cost to be a life member will be $37.50. Life membership costs $100–do the math: $12.50 x 5 = $62.50! Contact    MURA Membership Chair Jo Turner at turnerlj@missouri.edu  if you are interested in this option.
