Abstract

Plymouth Marjon University’s archive contains a wealth of materials from its history, which spans almost two centuries. Before doing primary research, the Brian Simon Research fellowship fund project, Far away from the ivory tower, engaged with this rich repository, selecting sources that provoked questions and ideas related to the team’s focus on understanding and exploring disadvantage in education. These sources, with questions and prompts to stimulate discussion, were used in informal meetings with participants, who were first-in-family to attend university; many participants had experienced disadvantage, and the selected sources enabled powerful reflection on experience and life stories.
