The so-called "millennial generation" has arrived on campus, and they've brought with them new and serious challenges.

It doesn't matter if your institution is large or small, private or public–you've likely already encountered this perplexing group. They are generally defined as younger than 27 and sometimes called 'Generation Me,' or 'Generation Q(uiet).'

Millennial students defy traditional approaches to management and communication. Yet it is vital to learn how to work with them effectively. The millennial generation has ushered in a new era of campus health and safety concerns, the most alarming being a dramatic rise in mental health issues and an increased threat of violence.

This timely seminar explores the "perfect storm" of social and environmental factors that contributed to the development of the millennial generation and offers practical advice for working with this unique group.

Whether you interact with the millennial generation as a faculty member, administrator or employer, you will:

• Examine the sociological and developmental factors that contribute to the personality traits of the millennial student.
• Analyze the societal factors that have led to an increase in school violence and other disturbing behaviors.
• Put your new understanding of millennials to work with practical methods for managing this generation more effectively–as students in the classroom, as employees, and as consumers.
