Message: [QUOTE="BlueMAB, post: 5044050, member: 920"] This is such antiquated thinking. Employers pay for their employees’ tuition, room, food, licensing fees, etc all the time. Fringe benefits are common. Making students pay for those things will just result in them simply negotiating for more money to offset the cost. Those things are already simply part of their compensation. Dan Hurley gets 20 tickets/game, 5 parking passes, a country club membership, $15k annual allowance for a vehicle (can’t afford his own on his salary?), but the players should pay for their food and housing? They are required to remain academically eligible, so they have to go to class to play, but if you want to treat them like that, are you going to pay them for the hours they are in class since it is part of the job?
