Each year Beloit College in Wisconsin posts The Mindset List to provide a insight into the world view mindset of the incoming freshman class. The post provides a parenthetical overview of the history of the newly admitted class followed by a list of the "always have" or "never had" life experiences for this enterprising group of students entering college life.
To view the current Mindset List for the class of 2015, click the link below.
The list provides an opportunity for educators to hold up a mirror to themselves and their students and realize how far removed from the world, lifestyles, environment, technology, teachers, schools, and classrooms that most of us experienced.
