Paying College Athletes: A Distraction from Academics Why should kids be paid for doing a professionals job? The debate on whether or not to pay college athletes is a debate that has been argued for quite some time. Due to the lack of positive results‚ and a surplus of negatives‚ this should not take place.

Should college athletes be paid actual cash for their contribution to the sport they participate in? Now I know a lot of people would argue that‚ “athletes do get paid‚ in scholarships”‚ but what about the big time D1 athletes that have their jersey’s being sold and being put on magazine covers? I mean some of these athletes we hear about daily are being publicized like celebrities.
