Chapter 1: How the Story Began

Don't know the cast members of this drama yet? 

Read about them here first!

A Brave Little Lecturer, with rights to defend,

Sought fair accommodation, quite the just end.

But Small Campus, callous and unconcerned,

Dismissed his plea, and robbed him of all he earned.

He turned to Campus Gopher, clueless and blind,

And Big Gopher, hoping for some help to find.

They refused to act, ignoring the law's demand,

Leaving the Brave Little Lecturer to take a stronger stand.

Again he asked for his just accommodation,

From the Small Campus administration.

But Big Boss's Lawyers and the Campus Gopher,

Ran his rights over with a lawnmower.

So our Brave Little Lecturer, with cause just and true,

Sought Chameleon's help, equal rights to pursue.

But Chameleon, it seemed, had other plans in mind,

Enforcing Big Boss's rules, leaving rights behind.

Sneaky Snake, with cunning tricks and sly,

Tried to make it tough and make the lecturer cry.

But the Brave Little Lecturer with steady nerve,

Kept on his path of justice to serve.

Then Nokloo, the "leader," blind to the chaos,

Went out to the fair for a magical seance.

Oblivious to strife, he twirls without care,

As the campus around him, descends to despair.

Oblivious to all that lies ahead,

His feckless ways leave others in dread.

A leader in name, but not in deed or thought,

Nokloo's poor judgment has faculty distraught.

The next thing that happened in this fascinating story,

Takes us to the heart of this tale so gory.

The Brave Little Lecturer, his rights would defend,

While the admin, with venom, sought to make it end.

Sneaky Snake, with help of his minions and all,

Fired the Lecturer for daring to stand tall.

They lied, and they cheated, and then obfuscated,

And harmed him beyond, with malice unabated.

His students wept, for they loved him so,

"This is not right! Our teacher must not go!"

But campus power was not swayed or bent,

The Brave Little Lecturer was summarily sent.

And Nokloo said to his snake Comrade,

"Don't worry, no playing mom against dad."

Then Nokloo put on a tie made of tartan, 

And proclaimed that he led a kindergarten.

For Nokloo's mind, it seems, forbids,

Treatment of faculty as anything but kids.

Nokloo's head seems filled with jello,

He really is a half-baked fellow.

The not-so-fearless "leader," it would seem,

Was less than useless to his team.

He'd rather run and sing and strut, 

Than help the lecturer out of his rut. 

The hero of our story again sought aid,

From Chameleon, but Small Campus wasn't afraid.

For alas, there was no help to be had,

Chameleon was Big Boss's Enforcer instead.

Next the system decided to call,

The lecturer a white privileged male, and all.

Now, that seems very odd for a place, 

That says you should not be judged by your race! 

"You're the wrong kind of victim," they did proclaim,

And the Brave Little Lecturer protested in vain.

"Help for all," they say, but it's not true, 

They only help the chosen few!

Against the law the U stood like a wall,

Trampling on justice, no help would befall.

A case of injustice, a tale of such woe,

But the Brave Little Lecturer, he would not go!

Onward he fought, his voice did not waver,

For others, too, had lost their rights and favor.

The U's forces did mount, wanting him tortured,

He persisted with courage, moving ever forward.

For the rights of himself and others were dear,

He was not the only victim, that much was clear!

The Brave Little Lecturer, he was intent,

On staying the course one hundred percent!

THERE'S MORE TO COME IN THIS GREAT TALE,
THE WHOLE STORY WILL BE TOLD WITHOUT FAIL!
IT SEEMS, WE FOUND, CAN YOU BELIEVE? 

THAT THE UNIVERSITY IS AN UPSCALE THIEF!
