If you pay your student fees, bigorangetix.com is the site IIRC. I had a spouse card the past two years. You just log in with your volcard and sign up, and scan your volcard or if you have a spouse card you go to the far right of the student entrance and then you have to be looked up in a binder and sign in. For guests, it will have the students name printed, but that is fine. Your friend just has to go in with you and the student section is all general admission, or at least was last season. Things change year to year though.
