What do you guys think about professors who read visit their student's facebook pages, and in some cases, browse them to a fair degree of depth?
I personally find it very inappropriate, and a tad creepy

Facebook pages are private by default. If you make it public, then no it's not inappropriate or creepy for someone to read it.

I always wonder what it is with insecure people who get pleasure and satistfaction by leaping to the first plausible opportunity to degrade someone else. It really shows loser-ness at an extreme level.
Anyway, your response and point is, not surprisingly, irrelevant to the OP. It's like my saying that someone stole something out of my apartment, but it's my fault for not installing secure enough anti-theft measures.
One should not need to make their profiles private to prevent professors from invading their Facebook pages. It is entirely irrelevant to a professor's job for him or her to delve into the social life of students. It's also, as stated, rather creepy.

And I am like the cool teacher, like Mr. Handell. Mr. Handell would hang out with us and he would tell us awesome jokes and he actually hooked up with one of the students. And then like 12 other kids came forward.. it was in all the papers. Really ruined eighth grade for us.

I disagree with that. It's publicly accessible, but so is my bedroom window with a telescope if one is so inclined to put forth EFFORT to do so. It's not like student's profiles plop down on the professor's homepage, they have to make a point of searching out their students and browsing around their pages; it's inappropriate. I shouldn't have to hide my profile to keep profs from snooping into my personal life

so not the same.
all you have to do is click and you can read someone's personal info and see pictures they've chosen to make public.
the telescope through a bedroom window could get you arrested.
sure, no one likes to have certain things about themselves revealed to their parents, their minister, their teachers/professors. some things are private. so why not keep them private online too?
