Gen-Y critique; don't look

Mark Bauerlein, an Emory English teacher, published an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal last month titled "Why Gen-Y Johnny Can't Read Non-Verbal Cues." It provies an interesting counterpoint to Cowen's article referenced yesterday.

I am not sure I agree with the bulk of Bauerlein's assertions, but I have started telling texting-students to put away their phones in class.
