Once, in a public high school, I began a semester class in physical science by seating students in a circle and asking them what they were interested in. I will never forget one student's response, 56 years ago: "Wes, we've been in school so long we don't know what we're interested in."
so resonant!

Oh my goodness! How very sad. But at least they are aware of the problem.
