I actually did a paper on this exact subject my senior year of College 10 years ago.The Student Center received income from the Credit Card Vendors by charging them a daily fee to market in the Student Area.I had many friends including myself that signed up for credit cards just for a FREE T-Shirt. Everyone thought it was great in my freshman year.Did you know that Student Organizations are enticed by Credit Card companies to recruit applicants as a fund raiser for their organization?Student groups can receive a flat fee for each applicant they receive.The positive outcome of my paper was that I was able to pass a resolution via our Student Government banning Credit Card Solicitors on our campus.
