When I was in high school in 1959 I remember teachers in our school becoming unionized. I had a rather dull history teacher who every class session simply stood and reread out of our history book what the class had been assigned rather than enjoin the class in any discussion about our assignment. One day he announced the teachers were now unionized. Apparently he had been a major driving force. He was not even a mediocre teacher... No other teacher commented on unionizing but he was really juiced about it.
