2004 'Mindset List' offers reality check.(Newswatch)(Brief Article)
For this fall's class of freshman, the United States has always been a Prozac nation and Alan Greenspan has always made its major financial decisions.
These are just a few of the insights offered by Beloit College's latest Mindset List, a reminder to faculty and staff that their new students may have some very different historic and cultural touchstones than they do.
"We think about the gap," said humanities professor Tom McBride, "and about how we can overcome it without pandering a whit to our new students." He is co-author of the list.
