As set forth below, I find that because Dartmouth has the right to control the work performed by the men’s varsity basketball team, and because the players perform that work in exchange for compensation, the petitioned-for basketball players are employees within the meaning of the Act.


Dartmouth should simply dissolve their BB program and all their athletic programs. They are an Ivy League school and do not provide athletic scholarships. How is this a win for anyone, particularly the athletes? You’ve given the school every incentive to dissolve what you love to do at a division I level? They weren’t receiving monetary support in the form of financial assistance for academics to begin with?

... my take away is that future NIL negotiations will likely cut agents and parents out of any finicial decisions since player now an employee of the university. An employee is paid by the university and the univetsity is required to protect its interests ...
