Why would you define Gen Z as being in school during the pandemic?
The shared experience. My youngest was alive during the pandemic but it didn't affect em in the same way as those that were already school aged.But if you were born in 1997-2001 or so, you weren't in school during the pandemic.
But if you were born in 1997-2001 or so, you weren't in school during the pandemic.Yeah I graduated high school before the pandemic. I was in college during it though
But if you were born in 1997-2001 or so, you weren't in school during the pandemic.The pandemic was my freshman year of college. Born 2000. If you were born in 2001 it was your senior year of high school.
Yeah I graduated high school before the pandemic. I was in college during it thoughGiven that college is optional and is a totally different environment from K-12, I wouldn't really consider that "school" in the same sense. That's a personal definition, though, so it is open to interpretation. Hence why it's a strange thing to put in one's definition of Gen Z lol
If you were born in 2001 it was your senior year of high school.Depends on when in 2001 you were born. You tend to graduate high school as an 18 year old, so if you were born early in 2001 you might have graduated in 2019 before the Pandemic really hit.

Boomers was a 20 year span but for each following generation they seem to be lazily giving it a 15 year range. To be honest it should more flexible and based off societal events. Wikipedia says Gen Z is 1997 to 2012 but it's got to go to at least 2015. And 97 is probably too early a starting time. I would define Gen Z as too young to remember 9/11 and in school during the pandemic.4 year olds don't have much of a memory so that is the reason for 97. Moving to 98 would fix no memory of 9/11 as there is no memory of being 3.

I imagine college students during the pandemic experienced a lot of similarities to high school students during that time.You can be in college at any age past high school though
You can be in college at any age past high school thoughI actually heard a kid graduated college at age 17 during the pandemic at my alma mater

Generation lines are never going to be perfect absolutes. It's talking about the typical experience for the average person born that year.well as someone who was in college during the pandemic, it really wasnt very similar to how it affected K-12. College isnt a 7 hour shift everyday and my school already offered online courses pre-pandemic, so the experience isnt really comparable.

grad schools were affected the exact same way but i dont think youd say grad school students in the pandemic were automatically gen z
Has there ever been a birth year where the average person went to grad school? It's getting way too niche. Also when I went to grad school during normal times I felt more related to my peers with a job than I did to undergrads. I'm sure it's different in other disciplines but in engineering by the second year research took up more of my time than classes and that felt like any other job.I think equating college to k-12 is already getting too niche. Not all generations have strict cut off dates and idk if being in school during the pandemic is a great one

I am too easily amused but I want to be apart of the Lost Generation! Also why was the second, the Greatest? Hahabest guess says that it's bc they were born right before the great depression when America was going through a ton of growth in the early 1900s
