BRANDON , MB – This year, BU students will have a “shot” at one free term tuition just for being a Bobcat fan.
Each time a student attends a Bobcat home game, their name will be entered into a draw to be held at the final Bobcat home game this season. That evening, one lucky student will be selected randomly and have the opportunity to sink a half-court shot and win one term worth of tuition at Brandon University.
