Please complete the following survey concerning the possibility of collegiate student athletes receiving compensation for participating in college athletics.
|
|
College athletes should receive monetary compensation (instead of scholarships) for participation in intercollegiate athletics. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Along with scholarships athletes should receive a need-based stipend (instead of a wage), for things like food, clothing, laundry, etc. |
| |
|
|
|
|
College athletes should receive compensation, similar to work study, instead of scholarships. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Male and female athletes should receive the same amount of compensation. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Participants in sports that produce revenue for the college should receive a larger wage that non-revenue sport participants. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Walk-on athletes should receive compensation. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Walk-on and recruited athletes on the same team should receive the same amount of compensation. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Paying athletes will create an unfair recruiting advantage for larger universities. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Paying athletes will help prevent high school recruits from bypassing college and going directly to professional teams. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Paying athletes will help prevent students from leaving college early for professional teams. |
