Student-Athletes as Employees
Last week, we touched on the idea of whether a student-athlete can be considered an employee in the Northwestern University case, and I linked to this article that indicates a potential change in how the NLRB views the college-athlete relationship.  Just this summer, the U.S. Supreme Court decided the case of NCAA v. Alston (linked here and in the Week 6 materials), which has implications for both antitrust and labor law. (Although we will not cover antitrust law extensively in this class, I wanted to nonetheless bring some of these issues to your attention.) In addition to the case itself, you might find this article instructive.

After reviewing the foregoing materials, please answer the following question:
Do you believe that college athletes should be treated as employees, and why (or why not)?
