I voted No. Get rid of the shirt requirement and things would be much, much better IMO. You could still say "wear a red shirt" or "wear a gold shirt" to certain games, and that honestly wouldn't be hard for 99% of the student body.
Last year I was in CA and loved it, me and a friend went to every game--lined up outside the North doors of Hilton and rushed down to our seats, usually 2nd row b/c CA had the front row. We were 4th row during the Kansas game. It was awesome being part of that. But there were a few games when my brother wanted to go, and I could get him a ticket but not a shirt so he couldn't go. If he could've worn any red ISU shirt, he would've been able to go to a lot more games.
This year I work in the athletic dept and have the "student athlete pass"--i'm not an athlete--and am supposed to sit in the designated student athlete section (directly behind the band, for anyone who cares). Technically it's still in the student section. I had to pay $15 to be able to sit with my roommates and friends in CA because they can't sit in the student athlete section. We're not as into the rah-rah of it all like last year--the novelty of it seems to wear off, has happened to a lot of my friends also so we sit in the upper rows of the lower level and we cheer and support our Cyclones, but don't really take part in the "festivities" of CA.
It's just frustrating that I have a pass to the game, but have to pay $ just to sit with my friends.
I would vote for:
Getting rid of the committee--most schools don't have one and their cheers/student sections are A-OK!
Getting rid of the required t-shirt altogether, or broadening it out to school colors.
Losing the required t-shirts would probably bring out many more fans.
And don't even get started on why they schedule a Saturday game for 12:30 or 2 weeknight games a week and then complain when students don't show up. Saturdays, most are either hungover, eating lunch at *gasp* lunchtime!, or ahh...that's right, don't have a shirt. Weeknights, we have things known as SI, Night Exams, studying, and other things related to what we are here for--to get an education, or don't have a shirt.
