Sondheim for students

Although I think all four people who read this blog also read Chris Uggen, I'm passing along a rather funny video link he provided today.

Far better they make'th a prank
then seated sullen winding down from crank
and when querried your class to rank
Woe! to hear'th them mutter, "it stank"

How times have changed. Upon viewing the clip, I thought of the times in my radical undergrad years when a demonstration was about to kick off, we would burst into classes and disrupt and confront people in a loud and rude manner. One time we occupied the Soc. building over a very popular professor not being retained and intimidated of all people, the poor TAs. I'm not proud of seeing TAs cowering in fear, as we had recruited a few local thugs with promises of free beer if they would lend some muscle for the 'event' - all the memories came flooding back - wearing old football helmets to protect the head from police batons, carrying the lid of a garbage can as a shield on the forearm, etc. Ah yes, college minus the academics...
