The Beloit College Mindset List

Since 1998, Beloit College, a wonderful liberal arts school in Wisconsin, has published the College Mindset List, "providing cultural touchstones and experiences that have shaped the worldview of students entering college and universities" every fall.  For those of us who are a bit older, it's always an interesting and amusing glance at how times have changed.

Because I work at an all-girls school, some of my favorites this year include:

  • Women have always attended the Virginia Military Institute and the Citadel.
  • Women have always been dribbling, and occasionally dunking, in the WNBA.
  • Female referees have always officiated NBA Games. (Editor's note: This year the San Antonio Spurs even hired a female coach!)
The College Mindset List is always entertaining, so click here to check out the entire list.

Have a happy and safe Labor Day weekend everyone!
