Each August since 1998, Beloit College has released the Beloit College Mindset List, providing a look at the cultural touchstones that shape the lives of students entering college this fall.

The Beloit College Mindset List, which this year is as old as the entering students themselves, is created by Ron Nief, Emeritus Director of Public Affairs; Tom McBride, Emeritus Professor of English; and Charles Westerberg. Additional items on the list as well as commentaries and guides are found
here and at www.themindsetlist.com Regular updates and discussions are on Facebook and Twitter.

See the Mindset List for the Class of 2019

Previous lists are available online dating back to the Class of 2002.

Among the 50 entries I found it interesting that, from their perspective, there's always been Google, South Park, and mass-produced hybrid vehicles. What is/are your favorite(s) and why? What did they leave out?

    "Only two types of queers" reminds me of "we play BOTH kinds of music here, Country and Western!" which both remind me of the two things that come from Texas, steers and queers.

    Help I am caught in a loop of references!
