the Internet, compared to 59% of the overall U.S. population.
The students say the Internet is essential to their academic
and social lives.
Among the key findings in a report from the Pew Internet
& American Life Project titled, "The Internet Goes to College":

*79% of college Internet users say the Internet has had
a positive impact on their college academic experience.
*73% use the Internet more than the library for research.
*72% check their email every day.
*60% think the Internet has improved their relationships
with classmates.
*56% believe that email has enhanced their relationships
with professors.
*46% say email enables them to express ideas to a professor
that they would not have expressed in class.
The report notes that surveys by the Pew Internet
Project show college students are much more likely than
other online Americans to use instant messaging, download
music files, share music files from their hard drive, and browse
the online world just for fun.
I fucked them.
