Disadvantages and advantages of using social media by college students.

Social media is the use of social media accounts to connect with different people on the world wide web. This is one of the many wonders of technology as it has brought the world closer and made communication with someone in a distant land instant and effective.

However, this doesn't come with its fair share of disadvantages for college students.

For one, excessive use of social media can adversely affect the grades of a student because while he is busy connecting to buddies, his studies are left neglected and they suffer as a result.

This also leads student to be open to catfishing and other fraudulent practises on social media which can lead to identity theft and even monetary theft.

However, we cannot let these factors distract us from the fact that students can share ideas with students in a different culture, learn about their culture and share theirs too.

Social media usage among college students should be used with caution, but above all, shouldn't be looked at as a bad thing, because, if anything, it is necessary.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
