Facebook Fail

Today I present a tale of Facebook failure.
Facebook

A few months ago, Ohio State released a study pointing to Facebook as the cause of poor student performance.  Skeptics (like me) were quick to point out that the study was flawed, and did not prove that Facebook actually causes lower grades.

So Facebook can't be singled out as the cause of student failure... but could it be a determining factor?  Recently two students were caught cheating... thanks to Facebook.

No, the students didn't cheat on or via Facebook, but they did use the social networking site to brag about it.  The Facebook conversations were used as evidence, and  the students got big fat zeros.

Cheaters.  Never.  Prosper.

COMMENTS:
if we can control ourselves,we will get good result in our life,like facebook this social sites can be used in good way,that can't damage our time,i think we will do it...
You're right, Cheaters Never Prosper. I've said that for years. It's easy to "blame" others or other sources for failure, when, in fact, it is always best to take responsibility for our failures as well as our sucess. When you "own it", you control "it" and can work towards bettering "it". If they were bragging on Facebook about cheating, they weren't the shiniest knives n the drawer to begin with.
