Informing on Mis-Information

Informing on Mis-Information

Dear Sir,

Could someone on the student executive please explain the misinformation regarding the purchase of Split Enz concert tickets.

Many of us were under the impression that being a student entitled one to a discount of about a dollar per ticket. When we went to buy tickets we were told that only International Student Travel Cards would be accepted as proof, and these had to be 1976 cards. This was the only proof they would accept. What type of farcical nonsense is this?

Our identity card costs $30.50. A person bearing such a card, which also carried your signature on it, should be entitled to student privileges.

One hopes that identity cards will be sufficient proof of one's identity, or have promoters become hypocritical in their 'Specially for Students' attitude, knowing full well that hardly anyone has this year's I.S.I.C. Card yet.

Lot of love,

Bruce, Trev, Gerald, Vas, Trev, Bruce, and Fred (Trev for short).
