520 _a"Just as the baby boomers, born between the end of World War II and roughly 1964, have dominated the landscape, their children will set the cultural, political and economic agenda for the next 50 years. This generation, the first to be counted at 100 million strong, promises to be the most talked about and catered to in history. Shaped by the end of the Cold War, the explosion in technology, a new global economy, Sept. 11 and terrorism that continues, they tend to be more sober-minded than those who came before them, and more willing to work within the system to effect change." (MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL) This article considers how the high school graduates of 2005, "with their emphasis on teamwork, achievement, modesty and respect for authority...bear little resemblance to their more nihilistic Gen-X siblings and even less to their self-indulgent baby boomer parents."
