Dartmouth men's basketball team votes to unionize in historic move

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has sided with Dartmouth's men's basketball team in their request to unionize, recognizing athletes as employees eligible to vote on forming a union. This decision could lead to significant financial implications for Dartmouth, including paying players and providing health benefits. Despite Dartmouth's attempts to halt the vote, the NLRB denied their request, and the process may continue to federal courts. An expert highlighted the potential benefits of unionization, such as wage increases and health protection. Both parties have until March 12th to file objections, and the outcome could affect other NCAA teams.
