I have a question about Facebook. - Off-Topic

#1 Edited by NTM (6419 posts) - 6 months, 15 days ago

So, I was wondering, and I know this is an awkward place to ask, but should I add the (community) college I went to on my 'about' section even though I didn't graduate from there? I'm not attending college, and if I ever went back, I know it wouldn't be at that same college, but I still added it; should I have, or should I take that off and just keep the high school I went to? Again, I know this is an awkward place to ask this, but still. Alright, thanks.

It is your FB, do what you want. I highly doubt anyone will care if you put it there or not.

I'm pretty sure I didn't graduate from Space Academy, but I still put it up there.

Go for it.

@IBurningStar: That's true; I still wondered.

@mandude: Did you go there though?

It's not LinkedIn; it shouldn't matter.

No, but I can dream. :(

A better question is: Do you think you'll be judged for it?

An even better one is: Would you care either way?

If the answer is no to either of them, you're good. Go for it.

@RPGee: No, I don't really care, but I still wasn't sure if I wanted to do it or not. Actually, I cared a little, 'cause I don't want anyone going "Oh! You went there!?" Although I don't think anyone will, I think.

Okay, thanks for the posts everyone. I've decided I'm going to keep it there. I guess this can be locked now if a mod comes by and wants to lock it, if not, sorry for the waste of time anyways.

Yeah, I agree. I just recently removed all of my education and employment info from Facebook because I don't think that's the sort of place that info needs to be.

@NTM: That stuff doesn't matter anyway, ask yourself, how many times have you bothered to look at somebody's profile page and see where they went to.
