Access cards (last year in any case) were between $90-110 I think, not $150. I can't see anything on the access website regarding this years price... I don't mind paying the fee - it takes a lot to run those societies (and everything else the union does). For clarification, most of the societies also charge a membership fee - however most are around the $2-5 mark. Some are higher - around $20. Faculty societies are free.
