AAUW Ohio is now on Facebook. It’s just one way we can connect with each other and with potential new members. And it’s easy to have a page on Facebook while maintaining your privacy as well.

You can click on the Facebook link at the top right of our Web page to find us there. Then become a Fan of the AAUW Ohio Facebook page.

If you already have a Facebook page, become an AAUW Ohio Facebook fan. If not, open your own free Facebook account and join the conversation. It’s easy, free and safe.

Once you have a page on Facebook, you can share any news you find on our Web site by clicking on the Facebook link at left and posting the link.

Here is how to maintain your privacy on Facebook:

• At the top right of Facebook, there’s a menu titled “Settings.” Mouse over the Settings menu and click “Privacy Settings” on the list that appears.
• On the next page, click “Profile.” This takes you to a page where you can decide who gets to see certain information on your profile and what you want to keep private. Underneath each section on this page (basic info, personal info, status, etc.), you can designate who gets to see that particular bit of information. Check “Only Friends” for maximum privacy.
• Again, on the “Profile” page, click on the tab that reads “Contact information.” Use the drop-down lists provided to designate who gets to see the contact information you have provided.
• Click on the “Settings” menu on Facebook’s homepage and then click “Search” on the following page. You’ll be taken to a Search Privacy page where you can specify who gets to find you on Facebook. Don’t want anyone finding you on Facebook? Change it to “Only Friends.”
• On this page, you can also configure what information displays when your information is returned as a search result (e.g. your profile picture, your friend list, etc.).
