2.      Do not post overly personal or revealing pictures or events on your Facebook/MySpace page.  In a perfect world, teachers could post whatever they wanted on their page, and no one would care.  Unfortunately, you are now a celebrity to a small group of people.  This group will stop at nothing to dig up “dirt” on you, and use it to blackmail you into giving them a better grade, or look the other way as they misbehave.  Yes, I am aware that we as a society have sunk to a new low…to borrow a phrase, “It is what it is.”  You need to protect yourself.  There have been several cases of teachers being fired based on content posted on their Facebook page.  Don’t be a statistic!
