"Ivy League’s Agreement to Ban Athletic Scholarships Is Illegal, Lawsuit Says
Suit alleges Ivies engage in price-fixing by not awarding financial aid like other Division I schools do"
"Will Ivy League Schools Be Forced to Offer Athletic Scholarships?"
"Earlier this week attorneys representing two Brown University basketball players filed a class action lawsuit in United States District Court for the District of Connecticut accusing the school and the seven other members of the Ivy League of violating federal antitrust law by agreeing to not offer athletic scholarships to students. All eight Ivy League schools compete in the NCAA’s Division 1, which includes more than 350 colleges and universities that enroll top athletes from around the world. Most other Division 1 schools, including premier academic institutions like Stanford and Duke, offer athletic scholarships.
According to the lawsuit, “The Ivy League Agreement has direct anticompetitive effects, raising the net price of education that Ivy League Athletes pay and suppressing compensation for the athletic services they provide to the University Defendants.”
