Northern Illinois University Offers Free Tuition to Students That Attend Home Football Games

DEKALB, Ill. (AP) — Northern Illinois University is offering students a chance at free tuition for the spring semester.

The catch is that they must attend all six home football games and stay until the end. One student who qualifies will be chosen at random. NIU has struggled to boost student attendance at games even though the team has made seven straight bowl appearances. The home opener is Saturday night.
