The table provides information about student enrolments in Bristol University in three different periods: 1928, 1958 and 2008.
For what concerns the first year, just a small amount of 218 students enrolled: this low amount is probably due to the fact that in 1928, with the First World War finished just from few years, there was a big economic crisis.
In addition, it is not difficult to imagine that the percentage of men was higher than the women one, which were pretty discriminated at that time: 58% against 42%.
What surprises instead is the fact that near Bristol, just 30 miles away, the percentage registered was of 50%: the reason may be that in that period, there were some more famous and prestigious universities than in Bristol.
Nevertheless, these data analysed are superior to the ones registered in 3 places overseas: just a 5% in comparison to Bristol than evidently reacted differently from the other countries still suffering from war.
Just 30 years later, in 1958, the percentages of students enrolled boosted, reaching a pick of 1,046 but still maintaining an inferior number of girls respect to boys: 32% against 68%.
However, Bristol University’s fame seemed to be already expanded at that time, with just a 14% coming from enrolments near to this city.
At the end, in the last year analysed (2008) the significant change regards the number of women that finally overcame men and a positive trend of the percentages of the world with a 28% in comparison to 5% in 1928 as mentioned before and 6% in 1958.
