Dartmouth team withdraws historic union petition fearing Trump administration: report

Dartmouth College's men's basketball team is opting to withdraw its historic union petition ahead of a possible challenge from President-elect Donald Trump's administration, according to a report.

The players voted 13-2 in March to join a union in what was an unprecedented move that threatened to upend the multi-billion-dollar industry of college sports.

At the time, the players joined the Service Employees International Union, or SEIU, Local 560, which represents other Dartmouth workers.
