This really is a great gesture, and probably one fo the best a University has ever made, dollar for dollar, in advertising.  However, I cannot stand the fact that people are calling it free laundry or a free trip.  You can call it a bonus trip and say that laundry is included, but at over $38,000 a year in tuition, laundry is anything but free.  When I have kids, they can mail me their laundry before I will pay that in tuition.  Although most of the kids could likely afford to pay their own way, it is a cool thing that kids will have the opportunity to go who may not have otherwise done so.  With that said, it should be a good game and I hope Wisconsin wins.

I agree that this is a nice gesture, but at 41k per year I'd like limo service to the game, a few steak dinners and maybe a couple drink vouchers for the hotel lounge.
