Other than a free college degree.

With the quality of higher education these days, is that really 'meaningful' compensation?

“Other than a free college degree.”

Had this discussion a while back with a friend whose son is currently doing this. I was surprised to see the friend was against compensation.

I’m against any scheme Booker is for but I don’t see why college athletes shouldn’t be paid. Is a student attending on an academic scholarship likewise prohibited from benefiting financially from his field of study while enrolled?
