‘Don’T Let Anyone Bring Me Down Again’: Applying ‘Possible Selves’ To Understanding Persistence Of Mature-Age First-In-Family Students, Janine Delahunty, Sarah Elizabeth O'Shea

Senior Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Education) - Papers

People with undergraduate degrees in anthropology are doing incredibly interesting and valuable work; their stories are both informative and inspiring. We are pleased to publish the first of what we hope will …
