I know professors who don't use computers. And are proud of that fact. Hard to believe but it's true.

Perhaps professors aren't cautioning their students because they themselves have never been to youtube or facebook or myspace. The person I know who is teaching now was NEVER warned about this sort of thing in college. They were warned about it by the district supervisor in the district they were going to teach in. And they weren't warned because THEY might have something up that could be considered objectionable but rather than they make sure their websites etc. were either deleted, or privatized. Why? Because students put up fake websites about their teachers to be cruel and so the district wanted to be sure so that if something came up, they could direct their attention to the students who might have done it rather than the teachers.

I think that colleges and universities need to do a bit of 'catch up' on this potential problem.

And, I might add, something slanderous like this happened to a woman who was a lawyer who had NOTHING to do with the website but had suggestive and lewd things posted about her. She didn't even know about it until a kind employer who turned her down for a position told her what he had found on the web. So, don't think that every bad comment or pic posted has been done by the person themself.

One website that professors DO know about is www.rateyourprofessor.com - might be interesting to go there and see what students have to say about the professors and teachers who are being sued. There's also www.studentsreview.com and a site for rating your high school teachers as well.

There was also a teacher about 2 weeks ago after appearing on the Howard Stern show, something with Ugly Husband, hot wife contest or something. I will see if i can find the article.
