Double Dose of Dartmouth - Unionized Athletes and Bringing Back the SAT - Passing Period #118
from All of the Above Podcast · host All of the Above
This Week: Jeff’s alma mater, the Big Green, hit the headlines twice this week with big news about the NLRB recognizing their men’s basketball team as employees -- the first ruling of its kind that may pave the way for seismic change in college athletes nationally. Dartmouth emailed its alumni this week to notify them that they’re tossing aside the pandemic test-optional policy and returning to requiring the SAT/ACT for admission citing that bringing back the testing requirement will help the college identify high qualified candidates from underrepresented backgrounds. The social justice spidey senses were tingling, but is this highly elite institution actually on to something in their context? Manuel and Jeff discuss.
