  Case: Social Media
Many of Mr. Smith's high school students have been adding her on Facebook, although she has not responded to any of the requests. She made a class announcement that she will not accept any friend requests until they graduate and are no longer at the school, is this appropriate?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Yes, I believe that this is appropriate, and that the teacher handled this very well. In high school, I also had a teacher who did this, and this teacher has left such an impact on my life. This teacher didn't allow me to follow them though until I graduated, and we still keep in touch to this day. This situation remains appropriate if the teacher isn't engaging in anything until after the student graduates and leaves the school.
