Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things. Each year the staff at Beloit College in Wisconsin puts together a list to try to give the faculty a sense of the mindset of this year's incoming freshmen. Here's this year's list:

  • The people who are starting college this fall across the nation were born in the early 2000's.
  • They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.
  • Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
  • Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.
  • The CD was introduced 10 years or more before they were born.
  • They have always had an answering machine.
  • They have always had cable.
  • They cannot fathom not having a remote control..
  • Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.
  • They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.
  • They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are.
  • They don't know who Mork was or where he was from.
  • They never heard: "Where's the Beef?", "I'd walk a mile for a Camel", or "de plane, Boss, de plane.."
  • Mc Donald's never came in Styrofoam containers.
  • They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.
 
Don't forget,
They wouldn't know what to do with their hands if their phone died or went missing.
They don't know how to sit and hold a conversation without texting
