We're All Badgers Now

Here is a very interesting piece in a "point-counterpoint" style, but with both participants agreeing that unionization in academia was not a bad thing after all. That is especially surprising coming from Stanley Fish, a literary theorist whose writing I find generally distasteful.  (In particular, as his Wikipedia entry notes, Fish has stated that "ideas have no consequences," a truly repulsive assertion.)  Anyway, it's well worth a read.
