(I’m very, very behind on blogging, reading my 1000+ feeds, and replying to non-work emails so please accept my apologies as I try to get back into the groove of things.)
Beloit College released it’s Class of 2011 MindSet list.
I am very happy about #16: “Women have always been police chiefs in major cities.” I get a kick out of (and am slightly saddened by) #49: “Virtual reality has always been available when the real thing failed.”
It’s odd to read about kids not that far behind me, having a totally different sense of the world than I do. For comparison, check out the MindSet list for my class of 2004. Particularly disturbing (come on, 2009!) is #4: “Somebody named George Bush has been on every national ticket, except one, since they were born”.
