Abstract	The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) is the governing body for collegiate athletics and has regulated the activity of student-athletes with the primary goal of preserving amateurism. In recent years, the restrictions of this principle have been challenged in court. The Supreme Court case NCAA v. Alston (2021) challenged the restrictions of education-related benefits for student-athletes. The court found the NCAA in violation of antitrust law and established permissible cash benefits for student-athletes up to $5,980. This new development changes the landscape for college athletics and provides student-athletes with more opportunities to generate a profit during their career as collegiate athletes. The lines between collegiate amateurs and professional athletes are blurring, which presents unprecedented challenges for universities in terms of budgeting and providing fair competition. Keywords: NCAA, amateurism, student-athlete, education, equity
