An Open Letter To The Auburn Ticket Office

Stop over charging me and my friends.

An Open Letter To The Auburn Ticket Office

To whom it may concern,

First, I really don't understand our ticket system, and I'm not the only one. Some how I find it that every Monday before a game someone is texting our pledge class group message or texting our friend group message the same "can someone explain guest passes to me?" And every week they usually don't get a response. Therefore, no one knows what's going on. Can you put a video out or something explaining it? Because the PDF you put out is not helpful at all.

Second of all, why on earth is every guest pass a different price? First, we have to pay for the ticket itself, then we have to pay an upgrade fee to get a guest pass? What?! And the guest pass upgrade fee changes based on what game it is anyway? I don't understand this. You're already making money off of the original student who bought the $160 season tickets anyway, why do you need to make more money off of a guest pass too? And we're only allowed one guest per student? I think you think that I don't have that many friends. I have so many friends that don't go to Auburn that want to visit me and watch the game with me, but I'm only allowed one? Therefore, you are limiting my social skills.

Next, what the heck is up with this "clear bag policy," you went through all of my stuff last year when that policy wasn't a thing and now you just want to go through all of my stuff and constantly see it? Also, why do the bags cost $90? You are just encouraging us to punch two holes in a Ziplock bag and tie a string through it. I understand that it's a new NFL policy, but guess what? We aren't the NFL, we are division 1 from the NCAA. Not professional, college. Because it's really unnecessary to take more money from me to go to a game.

Also, it's great that all sophomores, juniors and seniors are guaranteed season tickets now, but if we're only allowed to sell four tickets a season then how are the freshman supposed to go to games? Because we are probably trying to sell tickets that they already have. But, if you're going to continue with this new ticket policy at least explain the guest passes better, but it's honestly just easier for everyone if you change it back to the way it used to be.

Sincerely,

Mad and confused

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
