Requires a student athlete to provide the postsecondary educational institution with written notice and a copy of any agreement entered into for professional representation in a manner and time prescribed by the institution (rather than within 7 days). Requires a student athlete to provide to the postsecondary educational institution any written contract for publicity rights in a manner and at a time prescribed by the institution (rather than prior to the execution of the agreement and before any compensation is provided to the student athlete). Provides that compensation for a student athlete's name, image, likeness, or voice shall not be conditioned on the athletic performance (rather than performance or attendance) at a particular postsecondary educational institution. Provides that a postsecondary educational institution is not required to directly or indirectly identify, create, facilitate, arrange, negotiate, or otherwise enable opportunities for a prospective or current student athlete to enter into a publicity rights agreement with a third party (instead or prohibiting a postsecondary educational institution from directly or indirectly arranging for a third party to provide compensation to, or entering into a publicity rights agreement with, a prospective or current student athlete). Adds a provision encouraging postsecondary educational institutions to provide financial literacy, brand management, and life skills programming designed for student athletes. Makes other changes.
