Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
We have been FLA members since the year 2000 and WRC members since 2007. We have renewed our memberships annually in the past and our FLA membership is paid up through June 30,2023. However, since we have not been getting any direct value out of those memberships in recent years but are getting the relevant information through our participation in and dues paid to the Collegiate Licensing Corporation (they tell us when an apparel manufacturer or vendor is under investigation or has been found in violation of the code of conduct), we decided to not renew our WRC membership when it became due this past fall.
