Just by becoming a student in the Weitzenhoffer Family College of Fine Arts you automatically are eligible for discount tickets and free entrance to Fine Arts College performances.  Students receive discounts to all University of Oklahoma events, but in the College of Fine Arts you have more opportunities than the average student.  Ushers are needed for every show in the College of Fine Arts.  Concession workers are needed for all shows presented in Rupel J. Jones and Weitzenhoffer Theatres.  Those who volunteer for these positions are given free admission.  Cast or crew members of a show receive two complementary tickets for that show.
