Generation C? I thought they were the Millenials? Or Generation Y?
- girvo 13y agoGod at this point the entire "Generation" concept has lost all meaning. Pick a group of people, and call them "Generation <catchy-name>". Write paper, get cited, accolades, repeat.
- pjscott 13y agoI wonder how many generations I'll eventually turn out to have been born in.
- ggreenbe 13y agoyea a bit strange: "For example, CEFRIO, a public-private technology transfer group in Quebec, Canada, pegs Generation C as a group of individuals born between 1982 and 1996. This would actually place Generation C within the Generation Y or Millennial category. " Here is the breakdown according to Nielsen: "- Greatest Generation (1901-1924) - Silent Generation (1925-1945) - Baby Boomers (1946-1964) - Generation X (1965-1976) - Millennials/Gen Y (1977-1995) --Younger Millennials (18-27) --Older Millennials (28-36) Generation Z (1995-Present)" source- http://www.nielsen.com/us/en/reports/2014/millennials-breaking-the-myths.html http://www.nielsen.com/us/en/reports/2014/millennials-breaki...
