Is this sentence gramatically/punctuationally correct (particularly the bolded section)?

 

I am committed to lifelong learning and hope to be able to continually adapt to this generation's constantly changing technologies and the challenges and opportunities they provide to information specialists and library patrons

 

hippotree

Yes.

bumpuser794640

Bump burp..

Thanks.  For some reason I couldn't decide where the apostrophe should go.  Ridiculous.

I have another one:

 

Drs. Zavalina's and Schamber's interest in human information behaviors.

Yes, but try not to be so passive. Don't hope to; you either will adapt or you won't to the technological changes.

constella:

Yes, but try not to be so passive. Don't hope to; you either will adapt or you won't to the technological changes.

Thanks, I hadn't looked at it that way.  Made several edits based on this advice.

constella

No problem. Glad to help. 

Do Dr. Zavalina and Dr. Schamber share the same interest or same thoughts on the topic? If so, it should be Dr. Zavalina and Dr. Schamber's interest...

If not, then write Dr. Zavalina's and Dr. Schamber's interest...

Is there more to the sentence? If not, it's a fragment. I also would not use the word Drs. I don't know the specific rule regarding this, but it just seems clunky and I'm sure both would appreciate their own distinction with their title in your work as lots of effort went into earning it.

They do share the same interests.  There's more to the sentence, I just didn't feel like putting it all on here.  This is for my grad school application's Statement of Purpose.

constella

Good luck with your SoP. What program are you applying for?

bumpuser794640

Thanks!  Library and Information Sciences.

Best of luck! Grad school is overwhelming at times, but very rewarding.
