Your profile page is used to show who you are to the broader Carleton community. This is the only page in your account where the default privacy settings are set to allow others to view your page. All cuPortfolio users can see the content that you put on your profile page. If you choose to not add anything to your profile page, the only information that others will be able to see is your name and your friends list (you can choose to remove your friends from your page if you would like).
You should keep the content on your profile page general; think of it as your “Carleton student profile”. This page should not be used to create a profile or “about me” page for your course. If your instructor has asked you to create an introduction or “about me” page for your course, you should make a separate page to your course “about me” requirements.
