Northwestern football players take union hopes to labor board hearing
Chicago (CNN) - Kain Colter actually got this idea sitting in a college classroom at Northwestern University.
The 21-year-old quarterback, soon to graduate with a degree in psychology, is taking the day off from training for the NFL draft to take the stand at a National Labor Relations Board hearing today and testify against his own university and on behalf of fellow football players.
The goal: an attempt to revolutionize the way collegiate athletes are treated.
