Students take advantage of special sale

Dozens of undergraduate and graduate students lined up for hours in order to take advantage of the Mondavi Center's student ticket sale.

In an effort to promote student attendance at Mondavi Center concert events, 10 percent of the total tickets available for each performance were reserved for UC Davis students at reduced prices.

Students towards the front of the line arrived at 9 a.m., three hours before the box office opened, in order to ensure they got a ticket to one of the major events due in the coming year. Some of the more popular performers who will be appearing at the Mondavi Center include Yo-Yo Ma and Ihtzak Perlman.

The sale will end on Oct. 29 or when tickets are sold out.
