**"Today's kids are on track to become a powerhouse generation, full of 
technology planners, community shapers, institution builders, and world 
leaders, perhaps destined to dominate the twenty-first century like 
today's fading and ennobled G.I. Generation dominated the twentieth.  
Millennials have a solid chance to become America's next great generation."

    Improving Intergenerational Understanding--The Millennial Generation
    <http://www.gclc.org/ce/viewevent.php?id=732>

According to the Beloit College Mindset List, millennials may have 
fallen asleep with their Gameboys in the crib and don't remember when 
"cut and paste" involved scissors. The millennial generation is hitting 
our campuses, libraries, workplaces and classrooms with experiences and 
expectations different than those of earlier generations. During this 
session, participants will discuss generational differences and tips for 
effectively working with the millennial generation.
