College, university or trade school students, at least 18 years of age, interested in membership may become collegiate members by paying the dues of the Collegiate Farm Bureau chapter, in good standing, at their place of education. Collegiate members must be pursuing undergraduate degrees or certifications.
Article V. Local Units. Insert new paragraph:
Collegiate members of this association may, for purposes of representation in this association, organize a local unit hereof, to be designated as a Collegiate Farm Bureau.
