Starting August 28,2011, students and teachers will not be allowed to be Facebook friends after the Missouri Senate Bill 54 goes into effect. This is suppose to reduce sexual misconduct by teachers, there will also be a written policy that needs to be signed by both students and teachers on electronic media and social networking.
The only exception is teachers are allowed to have a Facebook page but all students will have access to it, for more of a public setting. The setback to the new bill is how will it be policed? The question is "will the state be allowed access to Facebook accounts, personal computers or Internet service providers records to see who's befriending teachers or students?"
