Why were societies such a big deal on campus?
It was because of the advantages they held.
A general benefit of joining a society was the fact that one would be able to participate in academy missions at a considerable discount.
The amount of student credits one would pay for being a member of a society would be reduced when taking on an academy mission.
Another benefit of being a part of a society is what is referred to as "shared credits."
This principle existed for when society members completed missions or even racked up special achievements.
A considerable quarter of the student credits they achieved for special achievements and missions completed would be calculated by the Academy AI and shared with the society members.
The president and leadership of the society would also receive a higher calculated portion of the student credits earned by society members who completed missions or had special achievements .
