As a rising senior in college, I am often quite concerned and focused on how my online presence appears to my friends, family, and especially future employers. As an avid user of social media platforms, I make sure that the content I post is age appropriate and nothing that could possibly get me in trouble or risk future opportunities. Conveniently enough, the sorority that I am a member of at High Point University has rules that we must follow when posting on social media. Having this rule in place has definitely made me more aware of the type of pictures I post.
When searching for myself online, the first result that comes up is the link to my Facebook Page. My Facebook page is private, so those who follow the link can only see a brief portion of my profile. Therefore, those searching for me online would only be able to see my Facebook profile picture. Other things that I found when I was searching for myself on the internet was my name on some lacrosse rosters from freshman year of college and high school. I am not very concerned about that information being accessible to people, because I do not think that would intrigue them or make them question my character.
Overall, my online presence does not raise any concerns with me or even thinking about it through the eyes of someone else. Moving forward, I will continue to monitor my online presence and keep my social media accounts private. A simple rule that I keep for myself is not to post anything that I wouldn't want my family to see!
