This system was established in 1996 to provide an objective framework in which to allocate limited resources such as bowl tickets and Big Ten Tournament tickets. Access to, and seat location for the 2000 Big Ten Men's Basketball Tournament tickets, will be based upon points for the following:
? Current donor participation in the Wildcat Fund through December 1, 1999. ? Consecutive years as a donor to the Wildcat Fund through December 1, 1999. ? Cumulative giving to Athletics. ? Consecutive years as a basketball season ticket holder. ? One time credit as a Varsity Letter Winner.
