Does youth include preschoolers and infants? Actually you raise an
interesting question-what age group does the word child imply? What age
group does the word youth imply?

Daphne,
Yes, I think it matters because Lifelong Literacy may be too ambiguous. How
about the Center for the Study of Adult and Youth literacy? I believe that
"Youth" is more encompassing than "Child."

I would like to invite some feedback over an issue that I am thinking about.
Currently, my center is called the Center for the Study of Adult Literacy.
The Dean wants the name to be changed to the Center for the Study of
Lifelong Literacy. I am worried about losing the word Adult in the title and
would like to propose the name: Center for the Study of Adult and Child
Literacy.
So, which name do you think is better:
Center for the Study of Lifelong Literacy
or
Center for the Study of Adult and Child Literacy
Do you think it matters? Why?
Thanks!
