1. I personally don't think college athletes should be able to unionize. They aren't equals to professional sports players who get to make their own rights. They play the sport because they love it, they are not that important. They only play for the school. Giving them their own rights would only make them too cocky because most of them never make it past college. We shouldn't start now giving them their own rights.
2. No, college students that play a sport should not become employees and get paid to be playing that sport at their college. They're not going to the school just to play the sport. They are their to learn playing a sport they like just gives them more things to do. There is no way they can be labeled as employees because they are not professionals.
3. I think if they were able to earn a salary, which they shouldn't be, but if they did then I think they should still earn their degree. They are still going to school so they should still be learning. Their education shouldn't be taken away just because they are now being paid to play a sport. That is irrelevant to learning.
