expectations of student behavior extend beyond the campus (i.e., on
vacations, for instance) and that that reach also extends to their
online presences. =20
As for faculty, I have just added a comment about Facebook to our new
faculty training outline, because at the last school I visited to speak
about Facebook/Internet Safety the young faculty pretty much ran out of
the room at the end to get to the computer lab before the students to
"professionalize" their facebook pages. They'd friended kids and not
thought about the content that was already out there. So I'm adding a
reminder for our new teachers who are recent grads that they might want
to take a look at their profiles/page content as they begin their
teaching careers.=20

Hi Alex,
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.
Tom

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.
