Did you read the article? The athletic department is in financial shambles, thanks in large part to the debt service on the football stadium, and they are considering ending the men's soccer and track and field programs so they can convert that stadium into housing. They are a P5 with a large and active donor base and they can't afford to service the $18 million in interest on the $321 million in renovations. 

This is Cal spending $ in places they should not have. One of the best academic institutions in America because of their high budget allocation to academics...they should have never fixed their stadium if some $ we’re not going to be allocated from academics. Of course there is no way they could have done that without pressure from almost every stakeholder.

I feel like someone just learned the term "service the debt" and used this thread as an excuse to type it as many times as possible.

When we go to an OCS, Free Student tickets will shrink big-time if we have them at all.

If they build the stadium on the back of student fees they would probably stay free???

Student tickets will stay free.  I'm not certain that the student section would get smaller either.

Would it really need to get smaller?   Maybe if demand increases enough
