Which policy enables college athletes to profit from their name, image, and likeness?
Correct Answer:
NIL ("Name, Image, Likeness")
Explanation:
The main idea here is who can monetize a college athlete’s identity. The NIL policy—stewarded as Name, Image, Likeness—explicitly lets student-athletes earn money from endorsements, social media partnerships, autograph sessions, camps, and other personal-brand activities while maintaining their college eligibility. This change created new opportunities for athletes to profit from their own name and reputation, addressing long-standing disparities between athletes’ off-field earning potential and their amateur status. The other ideas relate to professional sports contract structures or tax rules in pro leagues, which do not grant college athletes the right to profit from their own name, image, or likeness.
