A study of more than 260,000 college freshmen released this year by UCLA's Higher Education Research Institute found that 66.3% of freshmen surveyed last fall said it is "essential or very important" to help others, the highest percentage to say so in 25 years. Gen X-ers were the latchkey kids of the 70’s—they don’t want to make the same mistakes as their parents. The baby boomers were the first group to be raised with televisions in the home, and television has been identified as "the institution that solidified the sense of generational identity more than any other." [8] Starting in the 1950s, people in diverse geographic locations could watch the same shows, listen to the same news, and laugh at the same jokes. Television shows such as Father Knows Best and Leave it to Beaver showed idealized family settings. Later, the boomers watched scenes from the Vietnam War and the assassinations of John F. Kennedy , Martin Luther King, Jr. , and Robert F. Kennedy . The boomers found that their music, most notably rock and roll , was another expression of their generational identity. Transistor radios were personal devices that allowed teenagers to listen to The Beatles and The Motown Sound .
