EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image from 1977, academic staff and students of SOAS (the School of Oriental & African Studies, University of London) are seen united in their fight against tuition fee increases. The group is gathered outside, holding up placards and banners with messages advocating for affordable higher education.
The diverse group includes individuals of various ages and backgrounds, reflecting the widespread impact that fee hikes have on both young students just starting out in life and older adults seeking to further their knowledge. Among them are professors in jackets and ties, as well as young campaigners with a passion for political action.
This photo captures a moment in history when people came together to stand up against the financial barriers to education. It serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for accessible learning opportunities for all members of society.
As we look back at this snapshot from the past, it is clear that the fight for fair funding in education is not new – it has been a longstanding issue that continues to be relevant today. This image stands as a testament to the power of collective action and advocacy in shaping policies that affect us all.
