In recent years many studies concerning young people, especially the studies focusing on early adulthood issues, were published in Europe, USA, Japan and also in Poland. The question of the postponed period of reaching adulthood noticeable in many contemporary societies is referred to by their authors. The problems connected with a sense of being an adult, which most often means the acquisition of relevant social competence allowing to fulfill adult roles and responsibilities appear in such texts as well. The author presents some observations which appeared in course of the pilot research that regarded career planning by young adults in the changeable and ambiguous reality. Of particular interest in the collected research material were the young people's statements about their careers in which they mentioned the question of adulthood describing their feelings associated with entering this period of life, reaching it and a sense of being 'seemingly adults'. Especially interesting were opinions in which they described themselves as 'seemingly adults' – and in which they were prepared to share their experiences connected with felling not being adults and being on between adolescence and adulthood. On the basis of this research material the author intends to answer the question: how a group of young adults describing themselves 'seemingly adults' were experiencing their state of suspension or being stuck on their way to adulthood?

The authoress of the report on the 10th Summer School for Young Researchers on Adult Education has aimed to present crucial events that occurred during the anniversary edition of the School. Once again, the University of Zielona Góra played host to eminent social science researchers and young academics from different academic centers in Poland, who met to participate in academic discussions and share their reflections, discoveries and doubts. The report contains short presentations of the key events: meetings with professors, speeches by young participants, as well as the accounts of the annual role-playing game and the visit to another German educational institution. The 10th edition of the Summer School was a unique event not only because of its jubilee character, but also due to the presence of School's former students, currently highly regarded adult education researchers. Traditionally, this extraordinary research meeting will be complemented by the publication of majority of the presentations in the tenth volume of the Adult Education Discourses.
