[Air-L] Missouri Outlaws Student-Teacher Facebook Friendship

[Patricia Rossini]

But if the connection is already made, even for trading public messages, the door to private messages will be open. So, the prohibition must be for about the connections, not the kind of relationship established by them. It's not possible to control that!
I also think it's really weird. Why would that protect the students? when did teachers became dangerous?
