More than 117 universities, high schools, and elementary schools around the world -- from Helsinki to Hong Kong to Houston -- participated in the Student Underground, a parallel version of 24 Hours in Cyberspace. On February 8, students developed, wrote, photographed and designed their own stories about how cyberspace has affected their lives, and the lives of those around them.

The following stories were created and designed by participants in the Student Underground. |
