LOS ANGELES
Freshmen are spending less time studying or doing homework and more time using the Internet in the year prior to entering college, according to the results of UCLA’s annual survey of the nation’s students entering undergraduate classes at four-year colleges and universities. Additionally, the survey shows that despite the continued decline in time devoted to schoolwork, students’ high school grade point averages continue to climb.
