I have a similar question. I was interested in joining the ACM and IEEE as a student member, especially in joining siggraph. Well, I sent away my request for info on joining, but I do not know how long to wait. I have waited for about 6 weeks now. I looked thru the journals for a phone number to call so that I could join up instantly, but I could not find one. I know they used to have one previously. Did it get cancelled. Maybe I am blind and did not see the number. Any help on where to look for the number, or what the actual number is. I have a Visa card which I know you used to be able to use with it. I don't want to wait another 6 or 8 weeks to get joined up. I know it takes the sled dogs 2 weeks to make the trip from the US border to here :-) thanx for your time Dan McCuaig - weeny undergrad at Univ of Calgary {do they have a university there?}
