"Dartmouth's Stance on Basketball Players' Unionization"

TL;DR Summary
Dartmouth University has announced that it will not engage in collective bargaining with the union formed by its men's basketball players, despite a ruling by the National Labor Relations Board that classified the players as employees. The school contends that athletes in the Ivy League are not employees and is seeking a review of the decision. This move could potentially lead to the case being taken to federal court, as the players had voted 13-2 to join the Service Employees International Union Local 560.
