Does anyone have Facebook pages for their courses or schools?

I am going to be using Twitter this fall to update my students/parents and communicate daily. We have had some teachers express interest in setting up Facebook pages for their classrooms and courses. Is anyone doing that, and if so, how?

I am on Facebook and can see the benefit as there is no question that the kids are there. It seems to me that if you are careful with your settings and let students be Fans of an org page as opposed to your "friends" personally, it can work?

The link below shows my new website page---perhaps how it could be set up but with only Fans vs friends?


Thanks for the info!
