Message: [QUOTE="NYCSUGrad, post: 1759538, member: 971"] My beef is that kids on non athletic scholarships can earn income from various sources during the school year. Work study, an off campus job, or sometimes something in their field. I had an acquaintance when I was at SU who was a harpist. I recall she would occasionally do session work, and not necessarily just during school breaks. We didn't discuss whether she was on a partial or full scholarship because of her musical talent, but I'd be surprised if she hadn't been. But student athletes can't earn $, hence the uproar and the NCAA penalizing SU for the kids who worked the scoreboard at the YMCA and got paid. I suppose they should have donated their very limited spare time... [/QUOTE]
