<p>it’s not letting me join the fb group does anybody else have this problem</p>
<p>@girl2015 You have to be approved by Daniel Creasy to see posts and such.</p>
<p>do you think he won’t approve me if I have a senior Facebook name?</p>
<p>@girl2015 I have the same problem. I’m not getting approved and I’m pretty sure it’s because of my senior facebook name. You should submit a formal name change request to facebook and wait about a day. That should work.</p>
<p>It said I can’t change it until it’s been 60 days is that happening to you @kac622</p>
<p>@kac622 me too omg can’t wait to meet everyone</p>
