In the war, most young men were inducted into the armed forces at the age of 17. A group of students was permitted to attend university before taking part in wartime research projects.

Smalltime Shot Away
3d :
Tucked it in
Dropped a lie
Turn me off
(I travel I travel)
We never leave each other cause we leave each other so cold
It makes a madder way
The easy part is taking yourself in
Its wartime every time
A shot away
Wipe the smile from your face
Its getting in the way
Its wartime every time
She caught me on a lie and she turned me off
She made it cold
You couldnt do it if you wanted to
(believe me believe me)
Its wartime every time
Small talk every time
Its my favourite chloroform
Its pillow talk every time
Get it out the way
Friction war
Shot away
Ricochet
Were like identical twins
Sucking on the same teat
Spitting out the same things
(I travel far, I travel far)
Its wartime every time
Small talk every time
Its my favourite chloroform
Its pillow talk every time
Getting out the way
Friction war
Ricochet
Lineem up and knockem down
A shot away
A shot away
A shot away
A shot away

Violence or the threat of violence must never be permitted to influence the actions or judgments of the university community. Once it does, the community, almost by definition, ceases to be a university. It is for this reason that from time immemorial expulsion has been the primary instrument of university discipline.

I have never met anyone who did not support our troops. Sometimes, however, we hear accusations that someone or some group does not support the men and women serving in our Armed Forces. But this is pure demagoguery, and it is intellectually dishonest.
Each university should have a Young Scholars' Committee. I became the chairman of this Committee, and immediately it was permitted to have this plan officially adopted.

Dictated Dialogue
It’s crazy time at university
first term final essays due
students are scurrying bees busy
checking references facts never knew.
Writing stereo-typical answers
making lecturers more brilliantly blue
these are research required formats
that which all rabid mind-clogs do.

The University is a Mecca to which students come with something less than perfect faith. It is important that students bring a certain ragamuffin, barefoot irreverence to their studies they are not here to worship what is know, but to question it.

An inciting concert (or so was thought at the time)
I drive my yellow Bmw
with six cylinders roaring powerful
beneath a group of students
five pressed into the back
and three of us in the front
to listen to Koos Kombuis,
Johannes Kerkorrel, Bernoldus Niemand
and the Gereformeerde Blues Band
at the voëlvry tour.
The Afrikaans rock and roll concert
is banned at Stellenbosch
by the university
(probably by order of the government) ,
but another venue is found
where thousands of students turn up
at the Drie Gewels hotel
and it goes really jolly
and policemen with cameras
come to look
at who looks like communists
and whom they later
can crack down on.
Songs are sung
about government ministers
so and so
and we were told
who and what they really are
and we know
Johnny isn’t dead,
he’s just passed out
from all the drugs
and maybe in heaven
but probably
already in hell
and the maid Sara
makes green tea
for the man with the Bmw
that every now and then
embraces her
like a mother
and every thing goes well,
but for the policemen
who act like a group of clowns
trying to play spy
while criminals run loose
at other places
murdering, robbing
and stealing cars
and dealing out drugs to kids.

Every year I teach dozens of students at the University of Birmingham. Most of the students on the gender and sexuality courses are women. I guess this is because the boys don't think that gender applies to them: that it's a subject for girls.
