The Department of Education’s estimate, called the cost of attendance, which includes living expenses is $25,833 for in-state students and $41,244 for non Ohioans.” (Rabinowitz). Not all student-athletes are on a full ride scholarship, so just by providing them with $3,000 to $4,000 more from the athletic revenue would make a huge difference. People can argue that having a scholarship should be enough because its helping them pay for college and the university doesn’t really owe them anything, but when someone looks at the time and hours spent on the field as well as in the classroom you can see where someone would need the extra money just to get by. It’s not easy being a student-athlete, and adding the stress of having to come up with money just for their living expenses can be stressful. Student-athletes
One action that Elroy Berdahl takes in the story "On the Rainy River" is when he takes Tim O'Brien out on his boat to cross the river into Canada. Tim O'Brien has no idea that Elroy Berdahl knows why he is taking him to Canada but it is evident to the reader that Elroy is wise old man and that he knows that Tim O'Brien is a lost young man trying to find his way in the world. Elroy knows that O'Brien is making possibly one of the biggest decisions of his life but that it is not his place to advise or influence O'Brien in his decision but rather support him in whatever direction he chooses to head in. O'Brien describes Elroy's guidance by saying, "It struck me then that he must've planned it. I'll never be certain, of course, but I think he meant to bring me up against the realities, to guide me across
“I saw what real power was that day,” Swartz recalls. “I didn’t realize how hungry I was for that kind of purpose.” Timberland began shutting down operations one day each year so the company’s thousands of employees could get paid to take part in various company sponsored philanthropic projects, such as building homeless shelters or cleaning up playgrounds. The company started giving employees 40 hours of paid leave annually to volunteer at charities of their choosing. But the emphasis on social responsibility does not come cheap. The all-day event alone costs about $2 million a year in lost sales, project expenses, and wages for employees.
He thinks of the possibilities of approaching the man, of had confronted him. Playing situations throughout thought he thinks, what if the man did not want help? What if the man wasn't in need? On the other hand, thoughts like: what if all he needed was someone to talk to. Not being able to do anything the hero accepts regret and wishes he had shown some action as he would appreciate someone doing the same for his own son.
Still others state that only a small percentage of these colleges and universities make a profit from their athletic programs, most actually lose money (Bienen). For those athletes whose names and numbers are popular, significant revenue is generated and it is illegal for them to profit in any way from it. These are some of the issues involved in the controversy. One of the economic issues surrounding this issue relate to whether the scholarship, and the additional benefits received from playing at these institutions brings, is considered itself a form of payment (Dorfman). Aside from room, board, books, and tutoring, these athletes receive top coaching, training, and often exposure for a possible professional athletic career.
Did you know many people distinguished that year-round schooling is more expensive, that we need more summer, and it also does not affect on education. If people want to go for a vacation with their family, then we need summer. Just for two weeks is not enough for spending time with family. Now, many people distinguished that year-round schooling is more expensive. Throughout the 45 days of school the expenses increase which makes a huge difference.
Coming from my own home my parents didn’t have enough money to put me through a big time college right now and rather than spending fifty thousand a year I’m only spending about two thousand. Also there are financial aid programs that also can help out many others and with a low tuition rate the more people can attend school to receive that higher education. With all of this being said you can tell how important of a role community colleges play in the lives of many. These statements show how community colleges benefit individuals financially and the learning experience they have to offer to
He is just one of many players who support the community. No doubt doctors and teachers deserve to be paid more, but in reality that will never happen because there are too many people in that occupation. The small percentage of athletes can help our society in many
College is expensive and what one receives in return is not enough. What some graduates get is huge debt, and, for those whoearn their degree, a slip of paper they do not know how to use to get a job. But the pundits are wrong; for most students, the benefits of college will outweigh the costs. First, when considering the immediate costs of college tuition, the price has not grown to become unmanageable. The published tuition and fees is actually way more than the students end up paying to their universities.
I feel that Pro Athletes shouldn’t be making so much money, they make millions and sometimes even hundreds of millions to play a sport. What can they possibly do with all this money? People risking their lives every day aren’t making close to as much money as they are, and example would be the police or firefighters. They also don’t even “work” for very long. They play for around 5 years maybe more depending on how good they are, while others would work until they're in their 50s or 60s.
