Abstract
This publication explores a transformative moment in the history of UK higher education. After the First World War, British universities received an influx of students who had undertaken wartime service in different forms. In what ways did this development reshape university life, and what were the implications for student activism? We shed light on these questions through case studies from London and the North East of England, focusing on University College London (UCL) and Durham University (including Armstrong College, Newcastle). Special emphasis is placed on gender relations at these institutions as well as students’ attempts to foster dialogue, cooperation and reconciliation in the wake of international conflict.
