The suit argues Ivy League schools illegally conspired to limit financial aid and not compensate athletes for their servicesA pair of basketball players from Brown allege in a federal lawsuit that the Ivy League’s policy of not offering athletic scholarships amounts to a price-fixing agreement that denies athletes proper financial aid and payment for their services.
The suit argues Ivy League schools illegally conspired to limit financial aid and not compensate athletes for their services. Harvard, Yale, Brown, Princeton, Dartmouth, Cornell, Columbia and Penn don't offer merit scholarships of any kind, including athletic scholarships. The policy, which dates back to 1954, makes the Ivy League the only Division I athletic conference that prohibits member schools from offering any athletic scholarships
But attorneys for the Brown athletes point out that other elite academic schools, such as Stanford and Duke, do offer athletic scholarships.
Don't go to Brown then, no one is forcing that education on you.
