Socialization It can be stated that the concept of socialization as a part of student culture has gone through a little transformation. Previously socialization implied personal communication and contact, which in the context of colleges and universities might occur in the lecture room, during extracurricular activities, the dorms, and others. Similarly, such relations are developed and maintained personally, in one of the aforementioned locations. The modern concept of socialization, on the other hand, implies that students can socialize through internet. Moreover, in many cases such form of socialization might be seen prevalent more than other forms. The history of one of the most popular social networks - Facebook, which was initially developed as a Harvard network, shows how the network expanded to include thousands of universities and colleges.

The feel of books, the silence of the library, and the every-day ritual of going to search for a scholarly journal radically changed.
