The Kids Are Alright


I taught this week at University of Illinois with Professor of Advertising (and Jesus of Cool) Peter Sheldon and a bunch of funny, smart, refreshingly unjaded, worried-about-finding-a-job students. I understand the worry. But with the ideas they had, and the unending avenues available now for expression of those ideas, it occurred to me that there’s never been a better time to enter this industry. Never. There are more ways to advertise to people than anyone can keep up with. If you have ideas, it’s like a candy store, and the best part is, nobody really knows enough to organize the merchandise.

You may not realize it, but you are lucky ducks.

Happy to be of some assistance. Though I do not think of you as an old fart. Old, but not a fart. Perhaps 'old young 'un.'

Peter Sheldon is THE MAN. And by that, I mean, THE DUDE.
