Class of 2007 Mindset List
It's moved on from overdone to a yearly academic tradition: the Beloit College Mindset List for the Class of 2007 is out. There are always a couple of items on the list which surprise me and illuminate small changes that I never noticed happening. This year, those items include:
8. An automatic is a weapon, not a transmission.
12. Gas has always been unleaded.
32. They have always had a pin number.
33. Banana Republic has always been a store, not a puppet government in Latin America.
