In general, your profile information is only visible to other registered members. The web at large cannot access your profile information. Sensitive profile information you provided, such as birth date, is only collected by default to ensure you are within consenting age for membership eligibility. That information is not visible to the public. It is important that you provide a legitimate birth date in order for the site to index your profile to help other alumni locate you. Entering a non conforming birth date, such as 00/00/0000 will result in your profile not showing up in the member profile listing or member search results.

On the homepage, in the right column, there should be a section entitled "Classmates Search" that should allow you to do so.
