I know Rice University and Lone Star College very well. My experience with Rice was when I was young, and my experience with Lone Star is current.
If I had kids, I would never send them to Lone Star College CyFair, etc.
Generation Z’s significant challenges, such as emotional regulation and public speaking, should concern us all because they affect our society’s future.
If I talk to a student in Lone Star, there’s a 75% chance I’ll run into problems with administration because of their complaint.
If I were an HR director, I would never hire a Generation Z without giving them a test on emotional control and public speaking.
The decline in emotional control and public speaking among youth could lead to a national decline in education, productivity, and intelligence if left unaddressed.
The Rice system aims to develop students into global leaders, or ‘tigers of the world,’ emphasizing critical thinking and emotional strength. In contrast, Lone Star’s focus on passing courses and obtaining degrees may overlook these essential qualities, which impact youth development and future readiness.
