O’Bannon’s case granted a stay on last year’s ruling that the NCAA rule against athletes receiving compensation from video games and broadcast violated antitrust laws (Tracy, Marc, and Strauss). During the case, Federal Judge Claudia Wilkens ruled that universities allow coaches to offer players trust funds that they can access after they stop playing for the college, but the NCAA can limit the payments at $5,000 per year which cannot go into effect until the stay is lifted (Tracy, Marc, and…
takes fifty four percent of the total government budget. With one trillion and nine hundred thirty three million respectively. (US Office) Public funding towards colleges has fallen drastically. In 2004 the University of California received almost thirty percent of its budget from the state, this is compared to the current rate of twelve percent.

imagine themselves like prisoners dragging their loans wherever they go, and yet that may not be the case. The outcome of higher education can break the chains of this burden in many ways and in some cases it simply has to be put into perspective.
