Myth alliance - Letters: keep those cards, letters, and e-mails coming - Letter to the Editor

Residential Architect, May, 2003 by Daniel A. Neeb

I write you in response to a letter published in your March edition submitted by a Mr. Thacker (Letters, page 16). Please remind your readers of the fact that to become eligible for professional membership in the AIA (and subsequently use those initials after your name), you must first be an RA (Registered Architect). All you need to do then is submit an annual check for AIA membership, although many of us consider this an unnecessary expense.

We also find it interesting that the AIA has been able to so successfully promote the myth that if you don't have AIA after your name, you somehow are not a "real" architect. We beg to differ.

Daniel A. Neeb, RA
