ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions. ***************************************************************************** Hello, At Chabot Space & Science Center, full-time and part-time staff, as well as Interns, are given free membership. To my knowlege, Volunteers are not--although personally I don't see why they shouldn't get them (perhaps the 6-hours per month volunteering committment isn't deemed enough for free membership, or that as volunteers they cannot receive this kind of "compensation").
