Hey all,
I have an instructor who would like to do a video of college faculty dancing
and mouthing the lyrics to Call Me Maybe.  Of course there are all kinds of
examples of this on YouTube but it seems to me to fall against copyright
(using the entire song, not really a parody, etc.)

Thoughts on whether or not this is allowable under fair use?  The proposed
video will be used at an upcoming faculty/staff in-service next month.

Any thoughts are welcome.
