Generation Next

From the Heartland, Margot McMillen writes: Wonder what the next generation is thinking about? Every semester I start my college class by asking students what they want to learn. Here's the list for this semester, in the order they gave them: Gun Control and the N.R.A., Performance-enhancing drugs in sports, Obamacare and how it will affect us, Mental health, What the mayor's doing, Why doesn't the U.S. take its military bases out of faraway places like the island of Chagos near South Africa? Are there U.F.O.s? What's the story on global climate change? How can we be better at networking? By inviting speakers, looking at Ted talks and so forth, we'll attack as many of these as we can! It'll be fun!
