Within 24 hours, more than 2,000 students have voiced their opinions on the future of the student ticketing policy for men’s basketball games.
On Monday, the Carolina Athletic Association launched an online survey to gauge the student body’s opinion.
The survey, which follows the frequently criticized one-ticket-per-student policy of last year, closes at 11:59 p.m. Sept. 30.
CAA President Brandon Finch, who serves as the voice for the student population to the ticketing office, said the survey will be his way of listening to students.
“We’re giving students the option to help determine what they would like to see,” said Finch, who included the idea for a survey in his election platform.
Clinton Gwaltney, associate athletic director for the Smith Center and ticket operations, said this will be the first time a survey has been used to shape the policy. The survey, which is available through the CAA website, provides four potential ticket policies.
Students may vote once in the survey, and Finch said the final decision will be made by the ticket office.
He said three of the options have been adopted in the past. Group registration, the newest option, has been tested at Louisiana State University.
Finch added that the only game excluded from this policy will be the Duke game, which will continue to function on a seniority basis.
