Much of the student-staff partnership literature calls for increased collaboration and power sharing among staff and students. Less common are accounts by student partners themselves that take up the challenge of what partnership and power feel like as universities embrace their neoliberal trajectory - and - purport to do so on behalf of students…

Carver, Tracey L.; Stickley, Amanda – Journal of University Teaching and Learning Practice, 2012

Accordingly, despite the…
