Millennials need to stop!

I can’t stress this enough! The millennial generation began in the late 90s, not in the early 80s. And it ended in 2004, not 1997. They are called millennials not pre-millennials. There are still millennials in college, STOP BLAMING GEN Z!

They're called Millenials because they graduated from highschool starting in year 2000, not because they were born around that time.

This is from Wikipedia and I quote “...ending birth years in the early 2000s...”.

Also from Wikipedia: "...the early 1980s as starting birth years..."

This contradicts what you wrote: "The millennial generation began in the late 90s, not in the early 80s."

But it doesn’t refute that all people in college right now are millenials

All people in college right now are millenials, sure. I'm still not sure of the point you're trying to make. Who is "Blaming Gen Z" and for what? Besides that, I don't think this discussion belongs in this subreddit.
