Page3.pdf 1 10/3/12 9:37 AM Page 4 October 4, 2012 EDITORIAL The Threefold Advocate Play worth the pennies THE THREEFOLD’S TAKE ON THE COST FOR CAMPUS PLAYS TobyMac tickets, intramural team shirts, Fall Break trips— it seems as if everywhere we turn someone else is asking for a piece of our tiny money pie. Now even attending the school plays and musicals, which once was free, will cost students $3. Students have responded in a multitude of ways, but we at The Threefold Advocate believes it is still worth it. For starters, attending a production is an educational experience like no other. Just as you need math, science, English and history to round out your schooling, the performing arts play an important role. Furthermore, seeing a play or a musical of the caliber the University performs will cost you $30 or more elsewhere. Here your fellow students will give you a quality production for a fraction of that price. Your fellow students provide another reason for you to pay to see the production. These are your friends and classmates, and they have spent hours and hours of hard work to entertain you. The least you can do is give up one latte at Pour Jon’s to see them perform. Finally, let’s be honest, few entertainment opportunities exist that cost less than $3. You can’t go out to eat. You can’t go see a movie. You can’t go bowling. You might be able to Redbox a movie, but that’s probably already getting old. Going to see the freshman play “Sarah, Plain & Tall” will be a cheap, yet quality, experience that will add some diversity to your social life. So go ahead. Dig around in your couch cushions, break open that piggy bank, and look in the car cup holders to gather up all your spare change.
