February event is open to all and starts at a penny
A private Oklahoma university plans to auction a year of its tuition on eBay next month.
Oklahoma Wesleyan University executive vice president Bob Myers says officials from the online auction site have told the school that they don't know of any other college or university that has tried such an auction, reports the Associated Press.
A year of tuition, room and board at Oklahoma Wesleyan in Bartlesville costs about 23-thousand dollars. The university has an enrollment of about 1-thousand-and-30 students and offers 39 majors and 24 minors.
The auction will be open to anyone, including current students.
Bidding for the auction will start February 4th at one penny and continue through February 10th.
(Perhaps the university would consider offer a major in "bidness.")
