Anonymous Coward User ID: 1018942 United States 01/17/2011 11:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	College student paid off his entire $14,309.51 with a 33-pound duffel bag of dollar bills. [link to www.nytimes.com] The student, Nic Ramos, paid his entire spring semester tuition — all $14,309.51 of it — using dollar bills, a 50-cent piece and a penny. “It kind of started as a joke,” said Mr. Ramos, an economics major. “But when I thought about it more,” he said, “it’s just an absurd amount of money. I wanted to give the school a different way to look at tuition.” It took Mr. Ramos two days to withdraw the money from several banks. He said that when he walked into the bursar’s office on Friday morning with a 33-pound duffel bag full of cash, the tellers were stunned. According to a university spokesman, Bronson Hilliard, it took three people nearly an hour to count the money.
