Meet the Freshers: College, 21st Century Style
Meet the Freshers is a new video series on AOL's popular social networking site Bebo that explores what 21st Century "Freshers" (aka Freshman) are up to during their first semester at college.
The weekly series is hosted by teen publishing tycoon Tom Thurlo and is sponsored by The Student Room (TSR), an UK-based social network "where UK students share opinions and experiences."
So far, most of the students are focused on three things: sex, booze and, well more booze. Watching Meet the Freshers might provide most parents with more information than they really wanted to know or care to remember.
For these Freshers, college life probably isn't much different than it was for their parents. The key difference is that these young adults, unlike their parents, are lifecasting and documenting their adventures on social networking sites like Bebo, Facebook and The Student Room.
Hopefully these Freshers are savvy enough to know that Bebo never forgets.
