Don't know how widespread this sort of approach is, but I applaud it!


It's just as fine of a line that you have to walk with a product. We had more we wanted to do but, do we need more? At the end of the day we, as a conference, _need_ to get people together to talk and spread information.

Also, it's just the right thing to do.


I wholeheartedly applaud this. It makes the "student discount" less necessary too.

I think this will help me get a few more people to show up, too.


Student discounts are always necessary. I will definitely miss being able to ask for this, as even a small amount matters to students just starting to break into tech.
