10 ■ THE WOLFPACKER ■ WOLFPACK CLUB NEWS COMPLIANCE CORNER EXTRA BENEFIT VS. PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT DID YOU KNOW … There is a difference between extra benefits and preferential treatment. * The provision of extra benefits involve institu - tional staff members or representatives of athletics interest. * Preferential treatment occurs when institution does not have knowledge of the treatment, ben - efit or services being provided to the individual. Hole N. One is a golf student-athlete at Ocean State University (OSU). Hole asks his coach to call the pro at a country club in his hometown, so that he can have some free time at the driving range during the Thanksgiving holiday. The coach arranges for Hole to hit balls free of charge. This country club offers student discount rates throughout the year. Does this arrangement constitute a violation? Yes, other college students are not able to play for free. They pay a discounted rate. Is this an extra benefit or preferential treat - ment? This arrangement is an extra benefit because of the coach's involvement. Would this arrangement still be a violation if the coach was not involved? Yes, the violation would be preferential treatment. 12.1.2.1.6 Preferential Treatment, Benefits or Services. Preferential treatment, benefits or ser - vices because of the individual's athletics reputa- tion or skill or pay-back potential as a professional a thlete, unless such treatment, benefits or services are specifically permitted under NCAA legislation. 16.02.3 Extra Benefit. An extra benefit is any spe - cial arrangement by an institutional employee or a representative of the institution's athletics interests to provide a student-athlete or the student-athlete's relative or friend a benefit not expressly autho - rized by NCAA legislation. Receipt of a benefit by student-athletes or their relatives or friends is not a violation of NCAA legislation if it is demonstrated that the same benefit is generally available to the institution's students or their relatives or friends or to a particular segment of the student body (e.g., foreign students, minority students) determined on a basis unrelated to athletics ability.
