@RobertKlemko Here's a UNC athlete paper from one of those bogus classes, via @BryanAGraham. This got an A-. Sad stuff.

The problem is that they're all too often steered into sham majors that are solely designed to keep them eligible and upon graduation they have no marketable or employable skills that they can leverage into a sustainable career. The whole "they're getting an education" argument is pure unadulterated BS propagated by the NCAA when the real objective is to profit from these kids' athletic ability with no real concern for them post eligibility.

This kids are being taken advantage of and have been for years: http://screen.yahoo.com/hbo-real-sports-ncaa-student-050000662.html
