SCPTIMBIR IB. 1998 mEBua/iauM OP-ED Achieving success in the 21st century A guest commentary from our president With the new millcnium just around the corner, what skill sets will students and graduates need to achieve peak performance? A strong foundation to sharpen critical thinking and communication skills and increase understanding of the world and cultivate ethical awareness is essential; these are the goals of Wright State's general education program. Although these goals arc timeless, the skills they provide will be particularly important in the next century. Consider that in 2000, little more than a year away, information technology wiil expand the number of Internet users from 60 million to one billion. One of President Clintons debate coaches, who is probably now working overtime, remarked that we receive more information in one day than Thomas Jefferson received in a lifetime. Critical thinking and communication skills will be increasingly important in a world producing gigabytes of stimulus overload. Expanding world networks will also help to make us more interdependent, more like the -roverbial global village. By the middle of the Kim Guldentorg next century, with predicted demographic changes, minority groups in this country will become the majority. The ability to understand and Presidant communicate with many cultures will become a social, political and economic necessity. By the middlc of ^ nexl century, we will also benefit from a revolution in biology. Send in the clones—that is the human clones! Imagine both the benefits to humankind and the enormous ethical issues that will result from genetic cloning. Certain kinds of cancer and heart disease will likely be erased, and the prospects of significantly increased longevity will loom large on the horizon in the lifetime of today's college students. These megatrends and others will demand a strong educational foundation for those who want to swim in the mainstream of America's progress. The changes will also require the ability to work effectively in teams, with an appreciation that diversity of cultures brings a richness in diversity of viewpoints. It is no accident that many of the most effective students achieve success by creating or finding opportunities to study in groups, joining organizations, and participating in sports activities where they can be pan of a

It is through team building and perservcrance that many of our students and graduates have achieved national honors. For example. Wright State grad Marilyn S. McCauley became one of 1990's Top Ten Business Women in America. James Lewelly was a gold medal winner on the U. S. Wheelchair Olympic Team, and Erik Bork won an Emmy Award for producing From Earth to the Moon. Perservcrance makes a difference one day at a time. In studying, it means effective time on every task; not just reading assignments, but actively reviewing, summarizing, and questioning as well. With your perservcrance and the learning community at Wright State we know ihat you will be well prepared to face a rapidly changing and exciting future. While you were out...

— Welcome back to another year at Wright State University. If you were with us last year, you might have noticed different numbers on your bursar's statement than the one's you were Student U expecting. That's because, over the summer, the university Board of Trustees instituted another tuition hike. If you are an incoming freshman, this is a glimpse of what you're in for. You might also By Angelle have noticed that there used to be parking near Haney Fred White and the Russ center that isn't there anymore. And of course The Rock, was relegated to the rear of the campus like an embarrassing relative. Perhaps, you say, they increased our fees with the intent to build a parking garage, which can t be funded with state money. Or maybe the intention is to replace retiring or rousted faculty members and strengthen programs by attracting nationally known scholars and researchers. Or maybe even plant the seeds of a football team. But alas, no. Another six percent, even higher than last year, was deemed proper in order to keep Wright State in the middle price range of public institutions in Ohio. Maybe, you also suggest, they have taken out inner lots because the decision has been made to increase the efficiency and convenience of the shuttle system, on a par with other growing universities. Ask the powers that be about the University of Maryland, and their creative commuter program. And a generous soul might disingenuously offer the opinion that The Rock was moved to increase its accessibility for those students with physical disabilities. And, of course, all these decisions were made over the summer so as to pleasantly surprise us, come fall. The above suggestions were, of course, made facetiously. But these would be reasons that students might welcome disruptions and tuition hikes—if they knew their money was going to something that would make their lives at this school better. As staff on a s.ipend, every time tuition goes up, the paycheck of everyone here at The Guardian rises also. This might create the impression that we support these hikes, or at least don't mind them. But we are students, too, and we would like to know where our money goes. We too v. ant our campus to be aesthetically pleasing as well as pragmatic. Maybe, if the extra money was discussed and proven to be for our benefit, and not just a statistical nicety, . would be open to the idea. Tell us how much it would cost to have what we want, and let us weigh our options, like adults. Don't sneak it in when most of us are gone and hope we won't notice or complain too much. Hope everyone had a nice summer.
