- W3082166239 abstract "This chapter focuses on some students’ new strategies to avoid waste and unnecessary expenses. It analyses, in particular, Oxford students’ relationship with consumption and spending in the second part of the century. From the 1860s, undergraduates who felt ‘treated [like] pigeons’ became more suspicious of education costs and college economy, and therefore began to scrutinise their fees, battels, as well as bills from suppliers. As a result, they petitioned against abuses in colleges and tried to have a more rational approach to expenditure. The ‘Bread and Butter’ battle symbolises new student behaviour, in sharp contrast to the image of the ‘fast man’ during a period which emphatically and almost systematically portrayed these young men as profligate and self-indulgent. Students’ actions and reflections as consumers, in particular, how they fought against waste and mechanisms driving consumption, are discussed. The chapter concludes that far from being indifferent to excessive spending, many students in the 1860s refrained themselves and made wiser choices, putting a brake on past consumerist habits." @default.
