AAG Members who pay HMGSG Dues should be receiving Specialty Group Messages through ListServ
The Health and Medical Geography Specialty Group frequently communicates with its AAG members through a ListServ. If you are a dues-paying member, and have not received any messages within the past six months, or ever, you need to do the following: Navigate the internet to www.aag.org/; click on LOG IN; you should have established a Login ID and password when you first joined AAG; when these are visible, click the 'sign on' button; you should now be on the Welcome page. Under Specialty Groups Memberships, click on the Subscribe/Unsubscribe ... link; you should be subscribed to the HMGSG; if not, click the subscribe button; at the bottom of this page find buttons that specify your 'global preferences;' the News and Forums buttons for'Immediately send email messages for each post,' should be selected; ensure that the email address shown there is correct. Click the 'submit' button. If you have any problems with this procedure, send email to lmiller@aag.org and explain your situation. Once these settings are fixed in your preferences, you should receive any and all news from the Group.
