Students Offered Incentive To Consider Kishwaukee

Jenna Dooley

Students returning from winter break are getting an offer they can't refuse. One lucky student will have his or her tuition paid for the spring semester, up to 12 credit hours. Marshall Hayes is the Director of Foundation Development of Kishwaukee College.  Hayes says, "it's a tuition reimbursement we're offering for the spring semester. It's an encouragement for students to consider taking classes at Kish. 

The tuition reimbusement was approved after discussion with other department heads.

Hayes said, "they came to us and said if we wanted to do something, would we be willing to, we the foundation, be willing to support it. And I said I thought it was a great idea, I would love to do something like that. So that's kind of where the conversation started, and then the marketing department put the whole thing together, and we're kind of anxious to see who wins this thing."

The winner of the tuition reimbursement will be announced after the 10th day of classes.
