I graduated in the late 70s: in Britain ( winter of discontent, please turn out the lights etc.), at the zenith in some senses of ‘radical education’ My first two teaching jobs, part-time whilst studying for Ph.D. were in an established University Department of Sociology; and in a Catholic Teacher Training College. I want to concentrate for a moment on the latter post. Something a little funny….if you read my c.v. carefully you would think I hadn’t quite got the dates right. For it appears I took up a post in this latter department a good two to three months BEFORE I graduated…..Typo? No I’m afraid not.
