Poll: College athletes shouldn't be paid or form unions
Ohioans don’t want to pay college athletes salaries or allow them to form unions to negotiate working conditions.
And more than half of 1,174 voters questioned by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute earlier this month think colleges are focusing too much on sports and not enough on academics.
Fifty-five percent of registered voters questioned said they opposed allowing college athletes to form unions, and 62 percent said those athletes shouldn’t be paid salaries.
Additionally, 55 percent said “colleges are losing their sight of their academic mission because of sports.”
