Summary, etc With technological progress in the past few decades, the digital era of blended technologies<br/>of communication has made efficacious improvement across the globe. Social networking<br/>sites or SNSs have had a major influence in this respect. The paper tried to analyze<br/>empirically the overriding immense impact of SNSs on the student community which has<br/>transformed their ways of learning and interacting and has bestowed a collective benefit on<br/>them. The paper delved deep into which aspects of scholastic performance of college<br/>students did the SNSs academically, socially, and behaviourally effect. Primary data were<br/>used in the study and a descriptive research design was carried out with a formalized<br/>questionnaire. A structured questionnaire with 25 items was designed to determine the<br/>factors of social networking sites that had an impact on the college students. On the basis of<br/>systematic random sampling technique, a sample of 200 students as respondents was<br/>selected from different colleges of West Bengal. Statistical analysis was executed with<br/>exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. Structural equation modeling<br/>was performed through AMOS-20 on the proposed conceptual model. The prime findings of<br/>the study showed that most of the factors identified brought positive development among<br/>the students. Behavioural aspects of students, as discussed in the study, did not have any<br/>impact on the comprehensive performance of the students. The study is of prominent<br/>importance as the managements of colleges can help students to augment their academic<br/>activities by providing a platform for SNSs which would also help them to socialize,<br/>associate, cooperate, and mix with the student fraternity as well as with the bigger world,<br/>thereby solidifying their overall accomplishments.
