CineKAB reopens on campus, offering new benefits

Published on February 2, 2010 by Josh Pate

At the beginning of every semester, KSU students are always confronted with fees; somewhere in between tuition, the cost of books, and about a dozen fees, $ 75 goes to the Kennesaw Activities Board to fund all kinds of events on campus including free movie rentals. On January 26, in the Student Center cafeteria, a line around 100 people more waited for CineKAB to re-open. Students started to show up an hour before CineKAB was supposed to open to wait for free Avatar t-shirts and pizza.

“I love Avatar!” Rya Hartman said, as she stood in line for the anticipated Avatar t-shirt. As promised, the CineKAB opened their doors at 12:30 and 100 Avatar t-shirts in addition to pizza were given away.

The CineKAB’s Web site said that the movie selection is updated every month, but CineKAB always welcomes donations from students or teachers.

2010, though, has called for KAB and CineKAB to revamp; one new feature that KAB announced was an all new rewards incentive programs. Students at the CineKAB re-opening were among the first to receive the all new VIK (Very Important Kabbie) Card. This card gets a punch hole upon CineKAB entry and once all the spaces are punched, the cardholder is entitled to VIK benefits such as advanced places in line, VIK seating and a special gift.

CineKAB’s rental policy remains the same, whereby rentals are due after two business days, and a 1$ a day reoccurring fine thereafter.

Check out CineKAB in the Student Center cafeteria next to the Chick-fil-a and the Bookstore for free rentals.
