Collection
1974-1981

Entire range of student work from year 1 to year 5 with the exception of the year 3 part-time which he failed.
There is a small number of reports and essays as well and a boxed game and accompanying report which a student friend and Platt designed to teach students professional practice. This was their way of "avoiding writing a 4th year 10,000 word dissertation".
