The University of Alabama may undergo changes in the near future in how it handles football tickets for faculty and staff, according to the Tuscaloosa News.

The University of Alabama’s Intercollegiate Athletic Committee met to discuss its concern over employees who use their seniority to get tickets only to later scalp the entire season package.


The athletics committee is discussing making employee tickets similar to student tickets by placing them on a University ID card. The student system, implemented two years ago, has cut down substantially on scalping entire season packages.
