Final Project Idea

Final Project Idea:  For my project I wanted to focus on how universities are gaining a great deal of wealth through their athletic programs, while athletes feel like they are being exploited.  Athletes do not get paid to play the game and they cannot make money through endorsements, so it leads one to wonder if the university should be allowed to make money off them.  Schools are putting a continuous importance on their athletic programs and many people feel that what they are doing is not fair to the athletes.

  1. See my comment on Brian's blog, which is pursuing a similar project. Also, look at my comments on other blogs related to college sports. Basically, you should start by seeing the documentary "Schooled" on Netflix or Amazon Prime.
