But the schoolmarm in me brings me back to tell you that, because of the “y-” in the way “union” is pronounced, standard usage is “a union” even though it starts with a vowel. The reason we use “an” is to avoid an awkward slide from the a to the vowel, but in words that start with the “you-” sound it’s not necessary.
A ugly bastard An ugly bastard
A onion An onion
An unicorn A unicorn

Why would the academy have anything to do with labour relations at all? It’s the literal anthithesis of its foundation.
