The Association and Michigan State University provide an operational research organization headquartered on the East Lansing campus.

The Board recognizes that the district is well served by the cooperative efforts of the Middle Cities Education Association and by the pooling of resources and efforts with Michigan State University, and shall maintain membership and pay annual dues and assessment fees as established by the Association.
