Re: Generation gaps

Our team has an interesting combination of this.

When our team first started up in 2004/05, 3 out of my 4 seniors were actually older than me, the mentor. That was a little bit tough. Especially since they knew it.

It's interesting now that we have 2 "adult" (over 20-30 years old) mentors on the team, to watch the different ways that the kids treat us. The kids are not really disrespectful with any of the mentors (though they do joke a lot with me), but they are far more casual in their actions with the college students as opposed to the "adults".

Good topic Kathie!
