College athletes compensation a big issue that has been a very controversial topic throughout  many years. Just recently in the past few days a NCAA vote was made in favor of college athletes giving them the ability to promote their own likeness and profit off of themselves. In my essay I plan to look at the connection between college athletes and the NCAA/colleges and universities seeing the codependency between them. This obviously is not looked into and recognized enough but a very strong argument for the compensation of college athletes. Similar to the codepency in my topic there seems to be a connection between the arts and sciences not nearly looked into enough. Both these comparisons can be overlooked sometimes and the advances in looking deeper into both problems can open possibilities for new breakthroughs and understanding. The NCAA and science seem like the supreme rulings in decision making when in reality all the difference in the world can be made giving a bigger platform and louder voice to student athletes and the arts.
