We Want RESD Again!
Here is a song I put together to support the campaign to reinstate Regional Economic and Social Development (RESD, pronounced REZZ-dee) as a department at University of Massachusetts Lowell.
We Want RESD Again
(Tune: The Bulldog and the Bullfrog)
Chorus:
we want resd again
we want resd again
economics soc and histr’y are nice
but we want resd again
inter disciplin ary
not inter depat mental
if everyone’s got a
different department
it’s just too fragmental
cho
professors and students
in community
that’s the twist
in education:
liber a tory
cho
Africans and Chinese
latinos and euros
anglos and indigenous
and on and on it goes
We Want RESD Back Again
(Tune: Will Ye No Come Back Again)
We want resd back again
We want resd back again
Finer community you never saw
we want resd back again
