This article is a part of our "Monthly Article Series." Each fall, Beloit College publishes a "Mindset List" which helps us identify the worldview of the entering freshman class. The creators of this list, Beloit's Keefer Professor of the Humanities Tom McBride and Emeritus Public Affairs Director Ron Nief, remind us of rapidly changing cultural references for our current generation (http://www.beloit.edu/mindset/2013.php).

This year's "Mindset List" can be found here.
