SME Foundation 
Welcome,
The late John T. Boyd, a true industry leader, once said, "Membership has privilege. Membership in the Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration is a reciprocal privilege."
I encourage you to exercise your membership privileges and take an active role in advancing your profession... your industry... your society, SME. Please take a few moments to learn about the SME Foundation, its exciting opportunities and its needs. As always, our officers and Board of Trustees are available to answer any questions and are eager to hear from you.
