Subject: [SSC] Free School University meeting in Birmingham 25th Feb

Dear All,

On Saturday 25th February, there will be a national meeting for all those actively engaged in or interested in engaging in the development of alternative 'free' universities in the UK. Participants from all around the UK will come together to share information, experiences, and ideas about providing radical popular education that is accessible to all.

The meeting will be held in Birmingham between 11am and 4pm at a venue to be announced soon. 

Please can you let me know if  you wish to attend this event. We agreed at a recent SSC meeting that we should hire a minibus if there are sufficient numbers from among us who would like to go.

I want to book the vehicle at the beginning of next week, so please let me know by Monday, 20th of Feb at latest.

Best wishes,

Mike

Hello Sarah,
Thanks for your excellent comments.
Here's a re-write which we might discuss tomorrow.
Best wishes,
Richard

The Lincoln-based Social Science Centre (SSC) provides an opportunity for students and scholars to have a special co-operative experience of higher education. Run as a 'not-for-profit' co-operative, the Centre is managed on democratic principles with all students and scholars having equal involvement in how it is organised. The subjects taught at the Centre are the core subjects in the social sciences: Sociology, Politics and Philosophy. All SSC courses are taught and assessed at the same level as similar courses in mainstream universities in the UK and are taught by experienced educators who have an interest in promoting the underlying principles of the Centre.

People are invited to an 'open day' to find out about plans for the SSC and to come and talk about membership in the centre, studying, doing research, and getting involved in designing curricula. SSC members will introduce some of the major ideas of the Centre and discuss some of the current problems of higher education.

An 'open day' for all those interested in the courses (at the equivalent of BA, MA and PhD levels) starting in September 2012 is to be held at the Collection, Danes Terrace, Lincoln LN2 1LP starting at 2 pm on April 21. A social will be held in the evening (starting 8 pm) at the Angel Coffee Café, Free School Lane, Lincoln LN2 1. For more information contact:
