It is difficult to have leverage when 90% of the time there is 75% blue in that area of the dome. Yet, the students did not lose a single ticket. We all want a better student/ athlete experience and this is a serious financial boost and it is immediate.
I was a team maker when I was a graduate student because I wanted to know where I was sitting every Saturday. While the demand for season tickets have increased every year since I have joined, the student turnout has been very consistent. They have spoken in numerous ways.

If people remember back when Bohl was here, the students begged for more tickets for homecoming because there was not enough. Bohl said you come to every game and not just homecoming and you get your tickets. The students came and they got their tickets and sections. Well now students for whatever reason are not coming to the games as they once did. Yes the rabid students are still there and add get to the game. You are probably right on the small amount it changes each student for fees paid. I guess to me to that we are still have the lowest fees from students in both the Summit and MVFC. Maybe the students should have voted in the increase in fees the school was looking for and they would have their seats. And most likely still be one of the lowest fees paid vs our conference mates.

Of course they took the good seats. They didn’t want to give that section to students in the first place. They sure as hell weren’t going to hand back $100,000 for an endzone section. And this provides options at multiple price points for both new subscribers and existing looking for upward or downward mobility after years of 99+ percent renewal rates.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
Unless I heard incorrectly the students had their chance to keep section 16 but voted down the increase to athletic fee the NDSU AD said it would require. I believe the students are still sitting on $1.3M worth of tickets for football which is roughly the amount of revenue they contribute to the athletic budget I believe. Money talks in today's D1 athletics landscape.
