Best practices on how to effectively communicate with millennials and the “next generation.” How do you connect, do you connect with the upper-class students (juniors, seniors) the same as underclass students? Does your communication vary by team and gender but still delivering the same message? Millennials like to learn by doing; technology, social media and more technology – photos anyone? Texting over phone calls or emails; make sure they understand and give credit when they do.
