FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) - The University of Arkansas says it's providing free tuition to "senior Razorbacks" who are 60 years or older.
The school says senior citizens can attend classes and earn degrees for free, on a space-available basis. The school says college classes can engage older learners intellectually, and that younger students can benefit from the wisdom and experience of their older classmates.
Those wishing to enroll in a spring program are encourage to apply as soon as possible by the Jan. 8, 2010, registration period.
