Smoke and Mirrors (Advertising • Media • Worldview)

An evening with Walt Mueller from the Center for Parent Youth

This generation of students is the most marketing-targeted generation of all
time. Consequently, marketers know them, pursue them, and reach them
with advertising efforts that are shaping students' worldviews and behaviors
in significant ways - both in terms of who they are now and who they'll be
for the rest of their lives.

It's not a stretch to say that marketing is raising and spiritually forming kids. In this seminar, CPYU President Walt Mueller will examine the role that marketing plays in student development; the messages and methods of advertising to teenagers; how marketing is
shaping students' values, attitudes, and behaviors; and what we can do to
equip our kids to manage marketing's influence "Christianly," rather than
letting marketing's influence manage them.
