Drawing upon research including documentary and archival sources, newsfilm, press coverage of student life and life histories of men and women who graduated before the Second World War, this text provides insights into changes in student identity and experience in Britain. It is for students of gender studies, cultural studies and history.

This study examines women's experiences as teachers and students at British universities between 1870 and 1939 and shows clearly how sexual divisions were deeply etched in university life in Britain before 1939.
