by Angela Wu
Would you study on Facebook? Not study as in Facebook stalk your cute sophomore lab partner (or, let’s be honest, yourself), but study as in, like, prepare for an exam?

Which also means they’re now on Facebook’s Princeton network. We’re not insinuating people will start doing anything but… Here’s a hint: It rhymes with “Spacebook flocking.” The “Princeton
