Informal Summary Paper

This is an "informal" paper, meaning that you can offer your opinion, thoughts and ideas, rather than a more formal research paper in which you must use published journal articles as the basis for your paper. 

Topic:  With this in mind, the goal of this paper is to compare and contrast the differing issues between today’s college students versus college student populations of a generation ago.  Please address these questions:

• What are the similarities or differences that you can identify between students on campus today versus 20 years ago?  Reflect on what historical events and societal trends have influenced students over the past couple of decades.

• Based on your observations or experiences with today’s college students, what do you believe are the three greatest challenges for contemporary students?
• This paper requires you to discuss in depth the topic above.  Please make sure your response is 3-4 double spaced pages (not counting title page and references) using Times New Roman, 12 point font.  All work should include APA, 6th edition formatting including the title page, page numbers, headings, etc.
