March Madness: Cheer For A Union College Basketball Team

Huffington Post brings the news of the just completed representation election in Dartmouth Basketball Team Votes to Form First NCAA Union...

Members of the Dartmouth College men’s basketball team voted 13-2to form the very first union in a college sports program on Tuesday, delivering a boost to organized labor and another potential blow to the collegiate amateurism model.

 

The union election held at the Ivy League school in Hanover, New Hampshire, could prove to be historic, but the legal battle over whether the players can bargain collectively is far from over.
