After careful consideration of the financial status of the general account and the attendance at meetings, the Board of the Exchange Club of San Jose has decided to modify the dues structure. Beginning September 1, 2003, all members of the Exchange Club of San Jose shall pay monthly dues in the amount of $25.00 per month. All members will pay $15.00 for each meal eaten. Payment for each meal is expected at the beginning of each meeting.
Current membership demands dictate decreasing the number of meetings each month. Beginning in October 2003, the Exchange Club of San Jose will hold its general speaker meetings on the first, third and fifth Tuesdays of the month. The Board will meet on the second Tuesday of each month. There will be no meetings on the fourth Tuesday of the month. All members are encouraged to attend the Board meetings in addition to the general speaker meetings.
The Captains on Deck have been updated to indicate when we are and are not meeting.

September 30, 2003, SJ Exchange is proud to present a Discussion on the Upcoming Recall and What It Means for California with SJSU Professor Terry Christensen, Ph.D. University of North Carolina, 1972.
This is an excellent opportunity to bring a guest.
A specialist on state and local politics, Christensen has authored six books, including Movers and Shakers, a widely cited work on community power
with a San Jose focus (co-authored with Phil Trounstine, who is now Acting Director of the SJSU Survey and Policy Research Institute) and Local
Politics: Governing at the Grassroots, a text reflecting his years of teaching and participation in local politics. A new edition of California
Government and Politics co-authored by Larry Gerston, was published in January, 2001. Some of his extensive writing about San Jose political
history is now available on his page on the Political Science Department website.
