In High-Tech World, Access To Students Still Difficult - washingtonpost.com

Interesting snapshot -- see the article for more details.  This is probably a leading indicator of what's coming next inside other organization types. 

College students now are wired, wireless, Sidekicked, Facebooked, YouTubed and bleeping with instant messages and text messages. But try getting an important announcement out to everyone on campus.

It's the flip side of all the technology: Students are more connected than ever -- but surprisingly tricky for administrators to reach.

Land lines are all but obsolete. Cellphone numbers are slippery. And e-mail gets lost, overlooked, erased or ignored.
