☆ Dartmouth men's basketball team votes 13-2 in favor of first labor union for college athletes
  + stars: | 2024-03-05 | by ( Natalie Kainz | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Romeo Myrthil #20 (C) of the Dartmouth Big Green watches as his team play against Columbia Lions in their NCAA men's basketball game on February 16, 2024 in New York City. The Dartmouth Men's Basketball team voted 13-2 in favor of becoming the first-ever labor union for college athletes on Tuesday afternoon. The vote could present a huge shakeup to the National Collegiate Athletics Association's (NCAA) model, which currently only allows college athletes to financially benefit from their role on teams through name, image and likeness. "Because Dartmouth has the right to control the work performed by the Dartmouth men's basketball team, and the players perform that work in exchange for compensation, I find that the petitioned-for basketball players are employees within the meaning of the [National Labor Relations] Act," Sacks said in a statement. This isn't the first time a college athletics team has made a bid to be recognized as employees.

☆ USC, NCAA face US agency's claims that college athletes are employees
  + stars: | 2023-05-19 | by ( Daniel Wiessner | Thomson Reuters | Dan Wiessner | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
USC, the NCAA and the Pac-12 Conference, which is also named in the complaint, did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Friday. The board in December had said it found merit to charges filed by a group of USC players seeking to be treated as employees, and said it would issue a complaint absent a settlement. The U.S. Supreme Court in 2021 struck down the NCAA's limits on non-cash compensation for athletes, such as scholarships and paid internships. Several states including California have passed laws letting college athletes profit from their name, image and likeness rights. The USC case is the first filed by the board since its top lawyer, in a 2021 memo, asserted that college athletes should be classified as employees because they provide services that generate profits controlled by their schools.
