The year 2035will see the culmination of three major forces: (1) the last of the Baby Boomers turning 65+ yearsof age (2030), (2) the cross-over where the number of people 65+ years of age outnumber theyouths under the age of 18 (2035), and, (3) the recognition that the primary driver for populationgrowth in the U.S. will be from international migration (2030).These three major events will take place over the upcoming decade. Each of which, by itself, mayappear relatively harmless

Introduction To help starting engineering students in properly preparing for their engineering careers,introductory engineering textbooks advise them to devote a minimum of two to three hours ofstudy for every lecture-hour they attend [1]. In such textbooks, the point is often made that inhigh school most learning takes place in the classroom, whereas in college most learning takesplace outside the classroom. This important point correlates with other studies based on cognitivepsychology, which point out that the
