Well maybe not stupid, but they sure study less than students who aren't on Facebook.
A study of 219 students at Ohio State University, being presented at a conference this week, suggests a link between the social networking Web site and lower academic performance, though the reason isn't clear.
Students who said they used Facebook reported grade-point averages between 3.0 and 3.5, while those who don't use it said they average 3.5 to 4.0. Also, Facebook users said they studied one to five hours a week, vs. non-users' 11 hours or more.
Gee, do you think there might be a connection?
