There was a short lived TV show called The Great Indoors that had a similar premise although the age gap was not that great. Early 20's techie office workers who know nothing about being outside meet early 30's adventure magazine writer who knows nothing about tech. Had some cute moments but only around for a year.
I think it would depend on how it was presented...by and large, the older generation is not portrayed very favorably in their dealings with younger hipsters.

Yeah from my perspective they did. Its satire so they hit on some stereotypes and tropes, but I felt they did a really good job at hitting some of the internal politics that goes on. I also know some professors who were put off by it.

It's interesting. When schools are booming like WCU and SRU, I hear a lot of people talk about how their processes are better and they figured things out and they try to copy them. Then, when they lose enrollment...does it mean those processes no longer work? (Probably not. Probably some combination of things including the boom just being regional like WCU.)

I have received countless anecdotal stories from people about Slippery Rock just outdoing the other PASSHE schools on admissions, enrollment, orientation, & student experience. Nailing a campus tour then receiving a text from the student tour guide on the drive home following up. Other schools treating applicants like they're renewing their license.
