<p>“I have heard from my teachers that actually is absolutely OK for universities and college to ask for your Facebook log in information.”</p>
<p>I think this is just a scare tactic from a teacher or two who want to remind their students that if a student puts a lot of personal information out there it can come back to bite them in unexpected ways. It may be against a university or college’s admissions office policy for adcoms to look at a students’ facebook account, but what’s to stop anyone else in your future school from looking you up and making judgements based on what they see there? As always, it pays to be careful.</p>
