I am working on a short intervention piece for ACME: An International E-Journal for Critical Geographies about the successes and failures of recent initiatives to widen participation in higher education, including work on ‘raising’ young people’s aspirations, in relation to the student protests of late last year against the three-fold increase in tuition fees.
I would be interested to hear from any readers who can point me in the direction of examples of student protestors actually talking about their aspirations (for life, for higher education etc) in relation to the protests. I’ve found some examples from media coverage, but would welcome new leads.
Please leave a comment if you know of anything relevant.
