The Microscopical Society of Southern California. (MSSC.) is a non-profit organization founded in 1938 and dedicated to the study and practice of the science, art, and history of microscopy and to the collection and study of related scientific devices. Membership includes individuals with an active interest and experience in optical and electron microscopy and associated science and technology, as well as, novices with varied interests. The club is not exclusive. (MSSC) has a membership of around 75 people, and an average attendance of 40 at its meetings and workshops. The club produces a bimonthly Journal. We also have corresponding members from around the globe.
Membership entitles you to attend our monthly meetings and workshops (see MSSC Program Schedule for details), and to receive copies of the Society's bimonthly Journal. To see a sample of the journal, please click here. The regular meetings are held on the third Wednesday of the month. Lectures by members and outside speakers on microscopical subjects are featured. Workshops are held on the first Saturday of the month. There is also a quarterly "hands-on" practical workshop. Meetings and workshops also include a sales table and "show and tell" presentations by the members. Refreshments are served. All paid up members receive the regularly published MSSC Journal. MSSC members and non-members are welcome to submit microscopically related articles for publication in the Journal.
Yearly dues are due and payable as of January 1st of
any given year.
Dues for 2008 are as follows:
$25.00 renewal fee for Regular Members (able to attend meetings)
$15.00 for new Corresponding Members (unable to attend meetings)
We have lowered rates for 2008, since the Journal Editor position is vacant and Journal production is temporarily on hold.
Payment by cash or check. Make checks payable to: “Herb Gold – MSSC”
