[QUOTE="Technut1990, post: 809564, member: 3774"] some of you guys really have a problem with paying attention, perhaps it’s my block style of writing, I’ll admit I use punctuation as a hobby but I’ve said 30 times that BOTH SIDES are greedy. Y’all just pick and choose what you hear. I never separated whose greedy from who isn’t, both want things that aren’t theirs. Y’all are jumping on the SAs hardships, as if they were forced to get a degree without paying for it. y’all are stuck on payments and students earning their fair share. You act as if they aren’t receiving something of value without paying for it. They are now and have been getting paid, it’s called getting a $ 400,000 education for no exchange of money. in my very first post in this blog I clearly said the schools have no right to dictate control or ownership of a students image, name or anything else thats personal. I said a student should be able to earn at any job they wish to, how the hell do y’all just ignore plainly typed words ? A student demanding that the school pay them is not personal asset exposure, it’s demanding something that’s not yours. A student could forgo college and go straight to a NFL or college baseball draft or they can take the value of college exposure to enhance their talent. It’s up to them but y’all want it both ways. The student should be paid for the free degree and programs enhancement of their own future ? Why aren’t we all ? dosent a school,benefit from its other programs ? Are the only rich and famous industry people professional athletes ? How much does Tech pull in from having astronauts in the school ? General engineers ? Scientist ? All of them bring value and money into the school why don’t they get degrees without an exchange of money ? SAs are taking a valued item (education) while not paying for it (free). That education actually cost non students money for which they obtain loans to purchase, scholarship athletes don’t. Both have to work on earning the actual degree either way, free or paid so saying it’s hard for scholarship athletes is a non starter, yes it’s hard for every college student but the athlete is trying to do two things at once by choice. Good for them, I’m sure it takes a special person but their choice to try and go pro benefits themselves just like a non athlete decides to go pro in the medical field, it’s their choice. There is absolutely no difference in career paths - everyone has to do things that enhances their chosen path. the difference ? Athletes get half of it without paying for a degree that some of you apparently think has no monetary value. Meaning that they are getting something that the other students don’t [/QUOTE]
