(DETROIT) In an attempt to incentivize students and faculty to receive a COVID-19 vaccination, Wayne State University is offering free laptops, bookstore vouchers and even an entire semester of classes via a drawing.

Per Fox 2 Detroit, from now through Aug. 29, students, faculty, and staff can be entered into the drawing by submitting proof that they have gotten at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.

WSU's news of the drawing comes after last week's announcement that all residents of campus dorms will be required to receive COVID-19 vaccinations.

Potential prizes for students include $100 bookstore vouchers, $100 OneCard vouchers, a free semester of parking, laptops, a free semester of on-campus housing and a free semester of classes, while prizes for faculty and staff include gift cards, TVs, laptops and free parking.

More information on the drawing can be found here.
