I have the following:

<html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div>
            <form method="post">
                <div id="questions">    
                    <label for="question-6">Name of Course:</label>
                    <input type="text" name="name_of_course[response]" value="" id="question-6" class="required">
                    <label class="control-label" for="reporting-year">Reporting Year: </label>
                    <select name="reporting_year" id="reporting-year">
                        <option value="-1" selected="selected">Select option...</option>
                        <option value="4">2013-2014</option>
                        <option value="1">2012-2013</option>
                        <option value="2">2011-2012</option>
                        <option value="3">2010-2011</option>
                    </select>
                </div>
                <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save Entry" class="btn">
            </form>
        </div>
        <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery.js"></script>
        <script src="//ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery.validate/1.10.0/jquery.validate.min.js"></script>
        <script>
            $(function(){
                jQuery.validator.addMethod("notEqual", function(value, element, param) {
                        return this.optional(element) || value !== param;
                        }, "Please select an option");
                $('form').validate({
                    rules:{
                        'reporting_year': {
                            notEqual: "-1"
                        }
                    }
                });
            });
        </script>
    </body>
</html>

Everyone's favorite browser, IE7 (IE10 w/compatibility really) is reporting the following error in the console:

SCRIPT3: Member not found.

jquery.js, line 2525 character 4

Of course IE8 and above work fine, but my client is using IE7.
