If we can do it with a code it would make implementation
simpler.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi all, we announced student registrations
on Friday, and we've been asked whether we will have
student discounts on workshops.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We've discussed it in general terms, my impression
is there was general agreement around the principle -
but we haven't put anything specific into place.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, the questions are (supposing we offer a
discount): </div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>Do we extend a discount to all students, or just
students registered for the conference?</li>
<li>How much do we charge?</li>
</ol>
The cost of catering for a workshop attendee is in the
$35-40 range.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thoughts?</div>
