You're right that most people are not deep or eclectic or flexible no matter what generation they are from. I remember being an undergraduate student studying "a tale of a tub" by Jonathan Swift ...have you ever read that? We had a big seminar filled with about 110 students and dr. Poirier was teaching it----a very well renowned English lecturer who was visiting us for one semester at Rutgers College in New Brunswick, New Jersey. These days I do not believe there are 110 Millennials in the entire country of the United States of America who could sit through A 2 hour and ten minute lecture on Jonathan Swift's a tale of a tub and actually understand it and write a 10-page paper about it.
