CAPITALIST PODCAST: The Unionization of College Athletics?
February 28, 2014
Podcast time folks - Some smart kids at Northwestern are making a run at unionizing college athletics, and I had Seth Borden, Partner at McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP in NYC, join me on The CYA Report (my podcast over at Fistful of Talent), to break down all the union organizing/NLRB issues involved. Takes me back to my roots as an HR leader helping companies remain union free.
Here's a tidbit from my brain and the podcast. You college football kids want a union and want to be employees? Interesting - get ready to pay taxes on the value of your scholarship at Northwestern, which is about 60K per year. Riiiiight.
