Folks:
Welcome to the 2007-08 academic year. Let’s kick things off with what has been one of the most popular postings on the TP Listserv over the years, the annual “Beloit College Mindset List,” that looks at today’s college freshman and what they have and have not experienced in their short lifetimes. The results are both useful and sobering for any professor over 30. So here it is for the entering class of 2007 who will graduate in 20011.
