I agree with you that there is an age gapbut I dont really think this is the problem. I am able to speak with people who are much older or younger than I am without flinging wild accusations, threatening to get a person fired, and taking part in moblike actions. The students, in my opinion, showed no tact, no class, no self-restraint, little ability to speak in a dignified manner. They were, instead, insulting, rude, aggressive, and impertinent.
I am not much interested in trying to find ways to excuse their behavior by saying that the subject of the discussion was so explosive or sensitive that, yes, it affected their emotions but they are young so that is why.

None of this bodes well.The professor did a marvelous job of maintaining composure and trying to empathize with these outrageous students. In my opinion, he never should have tried to engage with them in the first place. They are not interested in reason or understandingonly in their own snide opinions and unjustifiable scorn. Shame on…

Student Smoking Behavior Given that the health risks of smoking are very well-known, one would think that smoking would be rare behavior among college students. After all, the average college student is not only young enough to have been exposed to anti-smoking education throughout their lifetimes, but might also values education more than their same-age peers who are not students. However, according to the research, young people, including college students, do
Student Engagement Post-Secondary Education Kuh, Cruze, Shoup, Kinzie, Gonyea (2008) provided that a college or post-secondary education degree is crucial in attaining individual, communal and societal achievement or progress. A high school diploma has lesser weight compared to a college degree and a person with it is believed to have acquired relevant knowledge and growth that would be cognitively and economically beneficial to him. To the community and society in general,
Student Performance in Business Class Given that all students in a given business class are exposed to the same professor and the same course materials, one might expect them to perform similarly. However, there is a broad range in how students perform in business classes. The purpose of this research study is to determine which variables impact student performance in business class.
