Structure Debate

Throughout this volume are a series of semi-fictional assemblages of learning as a means to illustrate the nuances of the arguments made. These merge the experiences of authors, students, and others who have shared their many learning and life assemblages with us. In turn, the semi-fictional accounts both structure debate and illuminate the learning assemblages that pervade archaeological practice. In Chapter 3, Student X is introduced. Their experience highlights the financial and social pressures of completing a degree, and introduces the challenges they face in their multiple environments, partly as a consequence of the marketization of higher education and broader neoliberal agendas. Chapter 3 also begins to introduce the diversity of student identities through accounts of their daily experiences.
