Abstract

The study of the future has been a discipline for just about 50 years now. The Hawaii Legislature established the Hawaii Research Center for Futures Studies, headed by Jim Dator, within the Political Science Department at the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 1971. Jib Fowles and Chris Dede established the first full graduate degree program in Studies of the Future at the University of Houston – Clear Lake in 1975. Both of those programs are still running, graduating hundreds of professional futurists, and they have been joined by more programs around the world. Isn’t it time we included younger students in our discussion of the future? After all, it’s their future more than ours.
