Still a hot topic, thanks for bringing it up again.
We are considering adding a policy that restricts Friending on social
networks that are not educational. One idea is to include an acceptable
social network list and any new networks must be approved before
connections can be made.
Once again educating the students and the faculty on the proper behavior
and the correct technical privacy settings are on the top of our goals
list.

I hope so and I face this challenge with my adolescent children, daily
and some days, hourly. But we do need to continue to tell students that
there are constants in life, like treating people well, and as adults
hold them to these constants. Through
thousands of years of technological change, the Golden Rule still seems
to be essential to our existence as a species.
