University (Scenario)
Gina is a dean at Polydor College, a school with almost 6,000 students. In her daily activities, she has to deal with problems that involve students, faculty, curriculum, budgets, and a variety of other things.
Among the problems Gina needs to deal with are complaints from students that the Physics Department has only one faculty member who is a woman and one who is a member of a minority group. Gina has been meeting with the department chair to address this problem.
Gina recognizes that students and parents pay a lot of money to attend the university, so when large and small problems arise Gina wants them dealt with effectively. She has installed a 24-hour "Hassle Line" with highly trained people to answer questions and solve problems. She hopes to have her Hassle Line employees function within a customer responsive culture.
-Gina sees her school's greatest opportunity to increase enrollment in prospective students who were born in the 1980s and early 1990s. What term describes these prospective students?
A) Baby Boomers
B) Gen Yers
C) Gen Xers
