Answer 1

Answer:

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.
