The Generation Gap at Work
Marilee Jones, Dean of Admissions, Lorelle Espinosa, Director of Recruitment
Fri Jan 28, 12-01:00pm, 4-145
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event
For the first time in history, four generations are active in the work force and misunderstandings can arise from our different generational values. These same misunderstandings play out between young staff and Baby Boomer faculty and administrators. Join a Boomer and a Gen-Xer to discuss what these misunderstandings are and why they occur between the generations. You will learn the typical characteristics of the Matures, Boomers, Gen-Xers and Millennials, see how they differ and learn how to effectively negotiate interactions between them. This is a fun session for all generations. You will never see the world the same way again.

The New Etiquette in College Admissions: What Is The Proper Role for Parents?
Marilee Jones, Dean of Admissions
Thu Jan 27, 12-01:00pm, 4-231
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event
The college admissions process is more competitive today and therefore creates much more anxiety for everyone involved. In this session, aimed at parents, we will examine how college admissions has changed over time and what this means for us. As the managers of our childrens' lives, what is our effective role in the admissions process? How much help is too much help? How can we support our children during this period without losing our composure, our dignity, or minds? This session is also appropiate for the parents of middle school age kids.
