Tickets - Employee Discount for Athletic Tickets

Upon employment with the University, full-time appointed employees may purchase up to two non-premium season books of tickets to football at half-price with no seat value donation if the season ticket seats were originally purchased for the Fall 2010 semester football season or before, and at full-price with no seat value donation if the season ticket seats are purchased for the Fall 2011 semester football season or any season thereafter. Further, employees may purchase up to two non-premium season books at half price for Men’s basketball, and discounted season ticket books to baseball games. Half-time appointed employees may purchase one season book to each of these sporting events with adherence to the same pricing structure.

Employees who meet the criteria for retirement privileges or are given the Emeritus rank are eligible to purchase up to two non-premium season books of tickets to football at half-price with no seat value donation to football if tickets are originally purchased prior to the Fall 2011 semester football season, and at full-price with no seat value donation if season tickets are originally purchased for or after the Fall 2011 semester football season. Further, these stated employees are eligible to purchase up to two non-premium season books of tickets at half-price to Men’s basketball and discounted season ticket books to baseball games.

Any taxable difference between the discounted price of tickets and the full price will be reported as compensation to the employee in accordance with IRS regulations.
