"The decision to loan the 1,500 tickets was made by the ACO committee," Kelvin Stroble, student government president, said. The Athletics/Community Relations/Off-campus Student Affairs Committee of the Student Senate gave the tickets to the athletic department on a temporary basis because students have "never come close" to picking up all, tickets allocated to,. them, chairman Michael GiUen said. "It's unfair for us to say we want them when they are never picked up," GiUen said. "The Michigan game was the first game all the tickets were picked up because the higher number of block seating cut down on the number of Russell House tickets available." The athletic department wanted the tickets permanently, but the Senate chose to loan them on a yearly basis, according to Gillen. "My interest lies with the students," he said. Approximately 12,000 tickets are now allocated to students, (Jillen said.

"The term 'borrowed tickets' is an overused phrase," said Moore. "This year's allocation was actually based on past years' demand." The 1,500 tickets are not assigned on a permanent basis so they may be used for students in the future, Moore said. Most of the tickets will go to Gamecock Club members and dignitaries, Petrus said. The loaned tickets are sold to the public and the Gamecock club, so the athletic department makes approximately $21,000 each game if every ticket is sold. The student government sees none this money. "With the and Increase^i*n organizations requesting funds, we are in dire need ot money. We need money any way we can get it," said Stroble. Moore said the athletic department is not making any extra money off the tickets because money from student fees is an allocation to the department and does not necessarily cover all the tickets. "In the past, all the tickets loaned back have been used for Clemson students when we play them here," Petrus said. "This year some tickets will go to Clemson and some will go to Carolina students."
