How much should it be?

The only person I know who got a stipend was for an internship after college where his room/board/transportation was provided, and he got $150 a week.

Because the athletes aren't allowed to get part time jobs and aren't allowed to get money in any way unless their parents give it to them, and many of them have poor parents, not all of them are 5 star guys with bag men slipping envelopes under uncle's door, if they get a stipend, how much should it be?

$75 a week? $150 a week? I'm considering their dorm and books and classes and transportation fees and student fees etc are already paid for.


You don't want it to be too much because small schools wouldn't be able to afford it.

Has there already been discussion on this? Am I Kaiser Wilhelm?


$0 They already get enough.
