Hello, I am the union rep for part-time students at Kent university. I did a word search for part time students and came up with nothing from your archive. In 2007 part time students were 1/5 of the the student population at Kent university. Of course with the times in such flux and the positive impact of education on old and changing careers as well as on drop outs who have ambitions to evolve their work reality into something more satisfying the part time reality is on the rise.
