This is a very interesting article. I never really thought about it but it is very true that student are very apathetic today. My generation is very different from 60s and 70s. I think that many students in my generation do not care to protest or argue for the their rights but I also believe that there is not much to argue about for young college students. The only thing I could think of is the right to drink alcohol or to lower the amount of police arrests. Perfectly good students that obey the rules and are on the Dean’s List have fun on the weekends and get caught drinking underage. They just went out to have some fun but end up paying for a fine and losing their driver’s license for a little bit. This is the only good protest or argument that the students of today would involved in.
John, a bit short, but good response. Also, I think that you made a great point in class about there being a high amount of arrests. Thanks!
