Since the millennium began 15 years ago, all eyes have turned to the group that will undoubtedly lead our country into years of unprecedented change, a group commonly referred to as "Generation Me." While Baby Boomers prepare to pass the torch to another generation of Americans in the Millennials, the handoff appears shaky as the country's two largest age groups eye one another through a critical lens - not realizing that they are often using different means to reach similar ends. Can the Baby Boomers and Millennials co-exist in order to provide a smooth transition of leadership for our country?

CT-N's Diane Smith
 will moderate the discussion as  she and her guests, comprised of local civic leaders from both generations, attempt to find parallels and differences in life experiences, expose each generations' "rules of engagement" and determine how both groups can move forward together using experience, technology and a variety of old and new civic skills and strategies that effect change.
