Only a certain number are ordered because they don't want to have additional merchandise that they can't pay the cost of/store/get rid of later in the year.
Your best bet is to ask at the MacPass table -- there Faculty Wide Welcome Week Planner should be there, as should at least one other faculty planner.

So whats my best option now ? I would have thought each first year had the opportunity to get one. I really wanted to go to the events and such :(
If you really want one you can always apply for a similar faculties macpass. They run out of t-shirts and the free stuff thats why supplies are limited.

That's bull, I'm willing to give up all the free stuff, I just want to go to the events.

Curious... just because there's not enough SWAG for everyone, wouldn't it be smart of the FYEO to allow sales of wristbands for all first years?? Oh wait... the FYEO isn't exactly smart...

I think they already do have a system like that in place. For everyone whose faculty has run out of MacPasses they can still buy a Residence only MacPass, the only thing they don't get is faculty swag; its also slightly cheaper! I'm pretty sure they announced that at training yesterday(FYEO people)

well that's a relief. Does it get you into faculty day or am I out of luck there?

I guess as long as they see that you're wearing one of those wristbands, you should be good. You will miss out on your faculty t-shirt though which everyone else will be wearing.

does kin fall under science now or is it its own faculty since it has its own faculty color ? Dumb question I know. Im just wondering because Im in kin whether passes are sold out for me or not.

Although Kin is actually part of the Faculty of Science, in terms of Macpasses, Kin students get their own.
