How do I get Windows 7 on Macbook Air?

I recently purchased a macbook air and I want to put Windows 7 on it. I can get a free upgrade of Windows 7. What is the best way to get Win 7 on the computer? I was thinking of purchasing a version of XP or Vista and then using the upgrade to get to Win 7. Or could I install the preview of Windows 8 and degrade somehow to Windows 7?

Update:

I am getting a free upgrade to Windows 7 from a school I am attending. I am asking about if there is any way that I could get Windows 7 on the macbook air (they can run bootcamp) without purchasing a full edition of Windows 7.
