In all honesty, social networking technologies, such as Facebook, do not make young people more “kindly”. It does not happen, because social networking cannot have that much of an impact on an individual’s personality. It is simply there to meet new people, keep in touch with others, simply networking. There is no need to act more kindly to someone else, because if any problems should occur, the touch of a click on the “ignore” button can come into play. It simply blocks another user when necessary. Regardless of Facebook making people more or less kindly, at times it can cause some conflicts. Due to the amount of exposure an individual can reveal, some other people may have problems with them. It’s just the way things go. For instance, if some individual says, “Who the hell is dumb enough to smoke,” a smoker might get offended and have some issues. These things are to be taken into consideration, because things do happen.
Welcome to 32nd and Chestnut...
This is the blog for 75 or so Drexel students, most of whom are new to college and new to Drexel.
We'll document the strangeness of college life, try to translate our experience for diverse readers, and chronicle what it means to be a college student during these crazy days of economic turmoil and political battle.
That's it for now; I have to go an play Spore.
