The waves of Facebook hits USP at its hardest!!

Facebook is one of a social network site designed for the purpose of chatting, meeting friends and of course sharing ideas through the internet. Currently, Facebook is the famous site of use through out the world with the largest number of users.The University of the South Pacific is no exception with almost 90% of its students at least having a facebook account. Recently, the USP had imposed a measure on the usage of  school computer labs for the sake of Facebooking or social networking and that is students will not be able to access their facebook accounts from 8am in the morning till 8pm at the evening.The action taken by the USP Board was imposed after complaints were raised  about students using the computer labs during school hours for chatting on facebook and other sites rather than using the computers for accademic purposes such as studying or typing of assignments.As such the USP network admin are working on schemes to stop students from  accessing  their FB account within this timeframe, 8am to 8pm weekly.
