last weeks "Time Magazine" had a front page article advocating paying college athletes. That means upping tuition and distribute the money to the athletes. a 4 year education at SMU cost almost $250,000. I think they get paid enough.

Could they get jobs in the summer like other kids on different types on scholarships? And if certain schools want to pay athletes they can form their own divisions. That would solve the problem.
