"Mindfulness" training in the public school system. Might it have a place in the college classroom too?

As positive as one might find this personally, I know that if, as a young person, I had had it "imposed" on me in the classroom, I would have likely dismissed it out of hand as BS. To me, this is the kind of thing one has to "come to" out of one's own interest, not the kind of thing that can be "mandated" by teachers and administrators.
