Join the Conversation!

Join a Conversation. Share Your Interests. Make New Friends.

Phoenix College is piloting Maricopa on Facebook, an interactive community for ALL Maricopa students, faculty and staff. Members can join in discussion communities and share common interests in specific areas such as sports & outdoors, lifestyle & beliefs, and hobbies & interests. Members can also affiliate with college clubs or other organizations that help to further focus interests.

Getting Started
You need to have your MEID and a personal Facebook account. The application will connect with the Facebook profile photo but will keep personal wall posts and other private information separate from the Maricopa on Facebook account.

To get started, you use your existing Facebook account.

1. Log into your existing Facebook account at www.facebook.com
2. Go to: facebook.maricopa.edu > Enter your MEID and click Sign-Up
3. On the next screen, click the Allow button
4. Enter your student email address
5. Check for confirmation in your student email account accessed through my.maricopa.edu
6. Follow the prompts to finish the setup
7. Complete your profile by adding interests and affiliations.
8. Take it one step further…introduce yourself and tell others what’s on your mind.

Accessing Your Account
Next time you want to access Maricopa on Facebook, just enter facebook.maricopa.edu or access through your personal Facebook account under the Maricopa Community Colleges personalized link.

Features

• Community: Find discussions focused on your stated interests and affiliations and access the Q & A section.
• Home: Start a discussion, view all wall posts or view only those from your friends or about your interests.
• People: View new members, make new friends with similar interests, locate classmates and find Facebook friends.

Is it safe to use?

Maricopa Community Colleges on Facebook is the official Facebook community for Maricopa Community Colleges. It was created in part to ensure that your personal Facebook profile stays private while allowing you to interact with people at school.

Does this give people access to my Facebook profile?

Maricopa Community Colleges on Facebook only pulls three things from your profile: Your name, your profile photo and your friend list. This is done so that you can see which friends go to Maricopa Community Colleges in the application. Maricopa Community Colleges respects your privacy and does not have special access to your photo albums, status updates, or any other activity of yours in Facebook.

Who can join Maricopa Community Colleges on Facebook?

Maricopa Community Colleges on Facebook is for students, faculty, and staff of Maricopa Community Colleges.
