Generation on a Tightrope: A Portrait of Today's College Student Arthur Levine & Diane R. Dean (2012)

“The current generation of college students is not prepared for this world. They lack many of the skills, much of the knowledge, and a good deal of the perspective it will require. On average, today’s students are the following: •

Digital natives [many of us are digital immigrants]



Weak in face-to-face social skills



Tribal in their relationships



Immature, needy, timid, protected, and tethered to their parents, who are their heroes



Self-absorbed, polite, rule observers, and good with adults



Hard hit by the recession



Pragmatic, career oriented, and determined to do well



Hard working, but confuse the quantity of work they do with the quality of the product



Consumer oriented and entitled



Optimistic about their personal futures



Pessimistic about the future of the country



Demanding of change



Disenchanted with politics and the nation’s social institutions



Issue oriented rather than ideological



Global talkers, green thinkers, and local actors



Engaged service and wanting to do good



Little involved in campus life



Sexually active but interpersonally awkward



Abusers of alcohol and heavy users of psychological counseling services



Weak in basic skills and cultural knowledge



Lacking in decorum related to technology and understanding of academic rules and values



More comfortable with racial, ethnic, and gender differences



Desperately committed to the American Dream.” (pp. 161-162)
