@ElissaMMonteiro The current NCAA has guidelines that create barriers for student athletes wanting to transfer colleges. The NCAA does very little to protect the individual rights of their athletes and tends to ignore the impact it has on students futures. #ucr150

@bowenzeng667 @ElissaMMonteiro @ElissaMMonteiro The chances of many of these athletes making it to the next level are slim. The chances of them developing CTE are high in sports like football. These athletes are not being properly compensated for putting their brains on the line. #ucr150

@ElissaMMonteiro The NCAA has certain guidelines everyone has to follow when a student has experienced a concussion in order to protect the student athlete. These guidelines are useless when coaches are not implementing them or following them #ucr150

@ElissaMMonteiro Title IX has championed for equity in both women’s and men’s athletics, but there are many aspects of the NCAA that are not seen as equal for both. One example, men’s sports teams receive more funding compared to their women’s counterparts. #ucr150

@ElissaMMonteiro While the students are only offered a 1 year guaranteed scholarship the coaches can be scouting for your next replacement. As a student athlete your future is not guaranteed under the current NCAA guidelines. #ucr150

@ElissaMMonteiro The NCAA has too much control over the students athletes lives considering that they base their future on a 4 year university experience while the schools are only offering 1 year scholarships that can be revoked any time #ucr150
