Overheard on the BUFA Picket Line


Overheard on the BUFA Picket Line

The admin of Brandon University
Created much faculty adversity.
The faculty did fight
To maintain its rights
To justice, freedom and diversity.

A university president in Brandon
Treated faculty with reckless abandon.
They went out on strike
For an overdue pay hike,
And for justice that they were demandin'.

A university VP named Scott
A strike from his faculty begot
Refusing to bargain
His financial jargon
Enhanced BU credibility (not).

There once were two fellows named Scott,
Who let BU go straight to pot.
Much to their chagrin,
The union would win.
Of such was their legacy wrought.

HR directors named Smith
Think faculty strikes are a myth.
But BUFA prevailed,
Would not be assailed.
She returned to her office forthwith.

Brandon's astute BOG
Fomented a strike, mon amis.
Student participation
Was great education
And victory's sure guarantee.

The BOG's crack legal team
For Lou V. created a dream
Of blissful submission
To admin's ambition
With a servile conformity theme.
