1. Schooled: The Price of College Sports

2. Intro
The actions of the NCAA and their treatment of student athletes has long been a major issue. If you ever asked the question “why are so many underclassmen entering the NFL draft, this film has many of the answers you seek.

3. Summary
“Schooled: The Price of College Sports” takes the viewer into the world of college sports, a multi-billion dollar professional enterprise, carried out by amateur “student athletes”. The rise of the NCAA from a little noted union into the one of the most powerful, and profitable, governing bodies in the whole world of sport is tracked, as we are shown the evolution of sponsorship and media rights deals worth fortunes, for which the players receive nothing, except their degree. But even this is questioned, as the ethical conduct of some colleges is questioned, leading to the comment “These kids may get a degree, but they don’t get an education.”
