As the college football season is in full swing, we are reminded that athletics at colleges and universities across the nation is big business. Schools can make a lot of money from sports and sports merchandise. While most schools have multiple sports programs, and often the big revenue from one sport is outweighed by the costs of other sports, college athletes are the ones putting in the most work. Even though most schools offer scholarships for many of their athletes, the NCAA places a lot of
restrictions on what schools, sponsors, boosters, alumni, and others can give to these athletes. In light of that, should college athletes be paid salaries to play as if they were employees? Why or why not?
