[snip]

 

"Online Social Networking on Campus: Understanding What Matters in
Student Culture is a professional guide for Higher Education faculty and
Student Affairs administrators, which rigorously examines college
students' use of online social networking sites and how they use these
to develop relationships both on and off campus. Most importantly,
Online Social Networking on Campus investigates how college students use
online sites to explore and makes sense of their identities. Providing
information taken from interviews, surveys and focus group data, the
book presents an ethnographic view of social networking that will help
Student Affairs administrators, Information Technology administrators,
and faculty better understand and provide guidance to the
"neomillennials" on their campuses."
