Set of sixty three audio recordings with former students and staff of the University of Birmingham between the 1920s and the 1980s, primarily discussing their experiences at the university but often also discussing their childhoods and school education, and sometimes their subsequent careers, originally made on compact cassette tape between November 1991 and July 1992.

Most recordings were made between November 1991 and March 1992, almost entirely by Donald Jones, but there is also one interview by Roy Lowe and Alison Gaukroger several months later, in November 1992.
