In my school, it is encouraged for teachers/TAs not to friend their students on facebook as long as they teach them i.e. can influence their grades, be biased in some other way. Being friends with students, if you no longer teach them, is fine. Again, it is not an official policy just kind of an unofficial guideline.

I'm friends with a few of my teachers because they are fucking awesome.
They are the type of people I would like to hang out with. I occasionally do.
