Be smart about your social media presence
Chances are good you have at least one or two social media accounts, possibly more if you have a campus-specific social profile. While social media is intended to share pictures with friends and the places you’re visiting, it’s not always safe. In an environment like a college campus, you need to be more conscientious about your surroundings – and telling everyone your plans can leave you vulnerable. Choose the right settings to keep yourself safe. Turn off your location. Be careful about checking in on Facebook or FourSquare. If you can, set your chat settings to block people who you aren’t familiar with. Think of it as today’s version of “Don’t talk to strangers.” If you don’t know who the person is, don’t confirm any private information and never agree to meet someone you don’t know in a private residence or other unfamiliar places. If you have to take that chance, take a friend with you and always meet in a busy public space.
