One involves a grad instructor, the other an administrator emeritus colleague. I know some of the students in the “Dr. X sucks” group, who are majors in my field, and I can’t help thinking much less of them for their membership, both in terms administrator of the lack of respect it demonstrates, but more in terms of a failure to understand that this group will be public knowledge. In general Facebook and related technologies seem to be in an intermediate phase where users have not quite figured out public/private issues. I imagine as episodes like this happen, administrator students will wise up and, groups like this, not to mention photos of students holding big fat spliffs, will gradually disappear from Facebook. ACC Prof, at 1:00 pm EST on February 14, 2006 Part of what amazes me about the people (particularly undergraduates) who use Facebook is that they forget that others- professors, TAs, dept. heads, academic advisors- can use it too. Anyone with a “school” e-mail address can sign up.
