Beloit College releases its annual Mindset List Tuesday, a list that shows the worldview of college freshmen. Many in the class of 2012 were born in 1990. Public Affairs Director Ron Nief says this aged group has always known multiculturalism and political correctness. Nief calls them the "green generation" who is used to everything being recycled.
Privacy is not as important to these young adults either.
"They're arriving at college having checked out their roommates on Facebook where they've shared their most intimate secrets with the world."
The ironic part, he adds, is that few have ever shared a bedroom or perhaps even a bathroom.
The young adults have always been looking for Carmen Sandiego, electronic filing of taxes has also been an option and Jay Leno is the only host of the Tonight Show they've ever known .
