Social media policy
My personal social media policy for students and others
I was trying to put this in my bios on individual platforms, but they don't give me enough characters, so this is my work-around.
For current students, I only accept 1-way social media platforms (Instagram, Threads, Bluesky), and I will follow you back when you graduate. If you're using a nickname or pseudonym, you'll probably need to tell me who you are because I don't accept requests from anyone I don't know personally.
For graduated students, you can add me on any platform and I will be delighted to know what's going on with you. I don't add former students as a matter of policy because my lack of ability to pick up on social cues makes it impossible for me to tell if this would be welcome or not.
For the general public, I only accept Facebook and Instagram requests from people I know personally. I have public accounts on Threads and Bluesky. Whenever I figure out where all the language teachers migrated to, I will be somewhat active on that platform.
I have public accounts associated with my travel groups and Spanish Club activities on Facebook (Fort Calhoun Travels), Instagram (Fort Calhoun Travels), Threads (Fort Calhoun Travels), and Bluesky (Fort Calhoun Travels).
