How about a 'sitting round drinking beer strike' next?

Students Declare Noodle Strike At Massey University
Press Release by Massey University Students Association at 12:57 PM, 12 Sep 2005

Students have today set up camp on Massey University grounds and placed themselves on a Noodle Strike in response to the decision by the University Council to request an exemption to the Annual Fee Movement Limit from the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) in order to increase Massey University student fees by 10% in 2006.

The students will be living in tents and eating only 2-minute noodles to symbolise the increased hardship Massey students would face if the proposed fee increase was approved. The students intend to make full use of the University utilities their money is funding...

["Back in my day we didn't protest by eating pot noodles - we poked ourselves in the eyes with hot coals! Cuh, I dunno - students these days are just soft", etc. etc.]
