Abstract:
The number of undergraduates working full time is steadily increasing. Concurrently, American workplaces experienced tremendous change. Thus, these students have to meet new challenges, adapt to dynamic environments, and perform in expanding roles. They expect their roles in academia to expand also. Strategies are needed to expand the student role and close the gap between what students expect of academia and what they receive. A thought-provoking model illustrates traditional and modern workplace and education paradigms.
