| | Beloit College Releases the Class of 2004 Mindset List (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10) |
 | | This year’s first-year students, members of the Class of 2004, were generally born in 1982, the year the E.R.A went down to defeat, AIDS was designated a top priority after it killed 164 people, the Weather Channel and CSPAN went on the cable, and Phil Gramm became a Republican. |
 | | For several years, Beloit College has prepared a list of some of the things that differentiate the frame of reference of entering students from that of their teachers and mentors. |
 | | Each year it is requested by hundreds of educators, clergy, business people, and journalists who use it to demonstrate how quickly gaps develop in the way we perceive and express ideas. |
