April 25, 2018

In the spirit of innovation for which the Silicon Valley is known worldwide, San José State University forges forward as the first major institution of higher education west of the Mississippi to address recent changes in the federal tax laws with a fan-centric solution.

There's more value in being a San José State University season ticket member (STM) than ever before!

Now, not only will you be able to enjoy six Spartan home football games a year at CEFCU Stadium, but your loyalty and investment in San José State Athletics will provide new year-round benefits, too!

Your support for San José State Athletics will take on added meaning through the new Shield 365 program. As valued Shield 365 STMs, we'll keep you connected with the Spartans from the first athletics contest of the fall through the final post-season action in the spring.

"The Shield 365 program represents a creative and customer-centric solution to the recent changes in the federal tax law. I'm excited that San José State University is serving as an industry leader in the critical space between revenue generation and fan engagement," says Steve O'Brien, San José State University's deputy director of athletics.

For each STM, every dollar spent on San José State athletics tickets and athletics-related season ticket parking will translate into priority points, rewarding fans with access to premium seating sections, preferred parking areas, autograph sessions, a summer movie night in CEFCU Stadium, in-stadium merchandise discounts, complimentary admission to signature events like the August Football Kickoff BBQ, men's and women's basketball booster breakfasts and much more throughout the entire academic year.

In all, there will be over 20 benefits and privileges associated with being a Shield 365 STM and avid supporter of the San José State University Spartans. The more you participate, the more you accumulate and the more you will be right alongside your favorite Spartan teams, coaches and student-athletes.
