Thanks to texting and social media, today’s students can go off to college without really leaving home. And that’s a good thing.
Texting and social media allow today’s students to stay connected to family and old friends in a way unimaginable to previous generationsI sometimes forget that my daughter has left for college. She Facetimes me on her way from the library to the gym. I see a small portion of her head, blue sky behind her, headphones dangling from an ear, part of a cup of coffee. She texts me updates on her failing quest to find the right edition of “The Waste Land” for one of her classes.
