[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 998689, member: 2957"] It depends on who you ask. According to the IRS, student athletes are NOT employees, nor is their grant taxable, as long as it is used for educational support (tuition, fees, books, etc.) According to the NLRB, student athletes ARE employees because they provide a service subject to various factors. These factors include the extent of control a hiring entity exercises over the worker, whether the worker is engaged in a distinct occupation or business, and the level of skill required of the worker to provide services. If the NLRB deems a person an employee, they can organize as a union. One doesn't have to control every minute of the day, only provide broad direction and reduce or eliminate "entrepreneurial activity". I think that as NIL increases in importance, universities can argue that SA's are independent contractors, each pursuing their own self-interest. [/QUOTE]
