Have you seen this year's Beloit College Mindset List for college
freshmen -- a group mostly born in 1992?
They can't do joined-up writing, think email is too slow, that
Beethoven's a dog and Michelangelo a computer virus. For them
Czechoslovakia has never existed, Fergie is a pop singer, not a
duchess; Clint Eastwood is a sensitive movie director, not Dirty
Harry; and John McEnroe stars in TV ads, not on the tennis court.
They've never had a cord on their phone and they don't wear a watch.
