If you have used a public network, your phone will likely attempt to reconnect to that network the next time you go to that public space. By connecting to these open networks without notifying you, your phone can run the risk of allowing outside interference and surveillance. Similarly, leaving Bluetooth enabled on your device when not needed increases your visibility and allows unknown devices to connect to yours without permission, even when on separate networks. Read more for how to disable these settings on both iPhones and Android devices.
Come Volunteer with your fellow UTHSC friends at the Midsouth Food Bank on four dates, including, March 20th, March 27th, April 17th, and April 24th. We will be volunteering from 1:00pm-3:00pm and transportation will be provided. Follow the link below to register today. Volunteers will work in our Volunteer HUB on different tasks, as needed. Our most common task will be sorting through donated food, checking for package quality, and ensuring the product is “in date”. Volunteers will then sort the product into different categories, then box and pallet those categories. https://uthsc.givepulse.com/event/432747-midsouth-foodbank-volunteer-opportunity
