Week 12 – Tutorials
Following my meeting with Sebastian and Suzannah I have decided that I want to focus on the interwar period of the history of Roehampton. I am unsure as to which of the 4 colleges to choose as all were affected by the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939. They were all in and around London and all were evacuated due to the threat of bombings.
My next step is to research the 4 colleges individually to look at what impact the war had upon the colleges to try and firm up a question. I like the idea of looking at the impact that the evacuation would have had on the students of the colleges, and potentially looking at a comparison between their living conditions and education while evacuated and their education pre-war and post-war.
