[NU Sports] Pay to Play

[Dennis W. Brandt]

 <I think this talk about a stipend is in part a recognition that a 
scholarship does not cover the basic costs of attending school and a kid 
from a struggling family.

And who covers the basic costs of attending school for the struggling 
engineering, music, history, etc. student, whose scholarship, if he/she has 
one, likely is only a partial, who works a job to pay the bills, who can 
probably look forward to paying back loans for years to come, doesn't eat at 
a special training table, doesn't have easy access to tutorws, etc.?  Yes, 
those students do not generate revenue for the university - as long as you 
forget the donations they will make to the university for years to come.
