Lecturers Strike

You know you're in public uni when the lecturers go on strike for an indefinite period and don't give a crap about how it affects your life. We students are usually the collateral damage when lecturers and the government disagree. We discovered this today when a very rowdy bunch of them bearing twigs and sticks stormed into the hall and kicked us out of class. Terrified and confused, we grabbed our belongings and headed for the exits not sure of what to do next. I previously thought that such occurrences were just rumours. Not anymore. So a cloud of uncertainty hangs over us. I hear this could take a week, two or worse, a month.
