Back before the turn of the century, I had email in college but didn't get but probably 20 in 4-years of undergrad. Cell (bag) phones existed but were too expensive for the majority of my friends to regularly own. Don't even get me started on the whole texting thing, I'd rather pass a note!
Fair enough - Facebook, MySpace and the like have made it that much easier for students to spread around (possibly secret or embarrassing) information.

That said, I always think we need to be careful when we start saying "This never would have happened in my day," or things along those lines.
