            • UC still lived exclusively
      • Shift from 'seasonal' to 'machine' time
        • Long 12-hr working days, 6 days a week with Sunday off

      • Lack of public provision
        • No access to personal equipment
          • Couldn't afford it and weren't really able to play many sports that required specialist equipment
