Builders, Boomers Xers, Nexters & Millenials: how to make the most of generational differences

Can Boomers and Nexters ever see eye to eye? What is a Millenial, anyway? Is the next generation truly going to be "Generation Me"? College and university communities experience the blending of generations—and the potential for generational conflict—in a way that is considerably different from any other living and working environment.
