I will be going to college soon, and realised I will see all of my true friends when in town anyway. I honestly don't really use the site that much, and its kind of a brain drain. I don't really want to build the habit of checking in on people I can't be bothered to see in real life. Also I am trying to make the next year a fresh start, and don't really want to look at the past.

I'll probably always keep mine... It's the best way to keep in touch with those people who I wasn't really close with but still don't want to lose a connection with.

Your friends in college will overtake your friends in highschool (unless you are all going ot the same college) I know you don't believe cuz yall are like "the best friends evar!!" but you'll see.

Keep your Facebook.

Don't do that. Just next time you see a status or upload from someone you don't want to here from just hide them. Will be much easier than starting new.

I made mine when I went to university. It is the lousiest page you will ever find but it's useful now and then.

I use it to keep in touch with university buds, and to plan events with my old high school friends.

I graduated last year and kept mine. It actually became more useful to keep in touch with friends who left and that I no longer see as much.

No, I won't. Regardless of where I go to college, I'd rather not lose contact with the people I actually do care about.

Same. I didn't really feel like I needed one until then because that's when my good friends went tofar collges and it's a good way to keep in touch.

I'll probably keep it until I die (though I won't use it an awful lot), although Facebook wasn't really popular until way after I finished university.

No. In fact that is why I made mine in the first place; to keep track of people I no longer saw every day.

Plus we actually have Facebook pages for my college and it's groups, as well as my workplace. It's how I am notified of all the events going on around campus. And it makes it really simple to get ahold of someone I may need to contact that I don't know very well (for example, a roommate's friend, someone from class/work, etc.)

I deleted my account after graduating from college. Didn't want any potential employers seeing my shenanigans.

I used it to keep in contact with people near and far. So unless the site shuts down or something, I'll never delete my account.

No, In fact, one of the only reason I made it was to keep in touch with people after high school.

That's why you make your account private...

I would see graduation as more of a reason to get a facebook page and stay in touch with friends than to get rid of it.

You can't get rid of Facebook...when you go to delete it, it clearly says all you need to do is sign back in for it all to restore.

I disabled it, not so much anything to do with finishing uni but just because I don't use it anymore. I use LinkedIn which is much better for employment anyway.
