After reading much criticism surrounding our season ticket sales efforts, I thought I'd provide some assurance that we have some people in the department doing a good job.
I joined the Facebook event group for the first game at the new stadium I suggest you 'attend" as well , and posted that I would be buying 8 season tickets this coming week. Soon after posting I received a message from an Elizabeth Laupus, a ticket sales rep in the dept. I assume she had clicked on my profile and saw I was a recent grad, so she made sure I knew about the recent grad program.
After I replied telling her I was aware, she then pitched the Mean Green Club to me and made me aware of a new MGC program for recent grads.
"The MGC parking passes will be at Victory Hall by the stadium. We have a progressive plan for new graduates.
If you graduated in:
2011 - $25
2010 - $50
2009 - $75
2008 - $100
2007 - $150
You will progressively move up the ladder each year until you are no longer a "Young Alumni" and would move into the $250 MGC plan. "
I was not aware of this and will definitely be joining, well worth my $50 (2010 grad). Hopefully this will encourage more recent grads to buy in.
There are currently 3,721 people attending this event on Facebook, I'm sure I am not the only one that has been sold on the MGC or season tickets as a result.
