Dartmouth men’s basketball team is the first to successfully unionize, and recent past decisions by the Supreme Court affirm that athletes should get a fair share of the money colleges make off them, PLUS a recent memo by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has affirmed the rights of college athletes to unionize and negotiate.

Resolves YES as more colleges follow Dartmouth’s lead.
Resolves NO if local rules or policies are enacted or clarified that prevent some schools from unionizing.
Resolves NA for markets that are created after the fact.
Market stays open perpetually until/unless college athlete unionizing is no longer allowed or replaced by a different mechanism.
