Research

I am writing my senior project research paper on, should student college athletes be paid to play his or her sport. I have found that the average loss for one university football team a year is a little over 7.8 million dollars. This statistic shows that colleges would loss even more money if they pay their athletes to play. Also student athletes get enough benefits for playing in college already, like food, gas, hotel cost, and insurance. Student athletes should not get paid to play in college because universities already loss enough money from athletic programs a year, college athletes are student, not employees, and college althletes already recieve enough benefits other than scholarships.
