EVANSTON, Ill., May 17 (UPI) -- A study of students at a Chicago university finds black freshmen are more likely to be using Twitter than white ones.
Eszter Hargittai, an associate professor of communications at Northwestern and one of the authors, said Tuesday the results also suggest college students are not as hooked on Twitter as they might be. A survey of first-year students at the University of Illinois at Chicago found 21 percent of white students and 37 percent of blacks said they use Twitter.
