Hip-Hop, Vans shoes, Facebook and texting are some terms that can be associated with today’s younger demographic.

Most of the students at Pierce College admit to being partial to texting over making a phone call.

Andrew Giraldo prefers the convience of texting.

“Texting is good, especially when you’re in class,” said Giraldo.

Whether students prefer texting or calling, it’s safe to say that their cell phones are being constantly used for different purposes.

The saying goes, “To each his own,” and that can be applied to today’s young adult generation in reference to fashion and music.
