Thanks, Beth. We just realized Ning's terms of service states one needs to be 13 years or older. So, we won't be able to use it with our 7th graders after all.

Yumi, go Manage > Your Network > Gifts. You will see the option to disable. I did not want it for my students. It seemed an inappropriate add-on for the class.

Invite members without becoming friends
Hi, We are creating a Ning network for our students. How do I invite the students without friending them? I noticed that the inviter is automatically friends with the invitee. I don't necessarily want to be friends with my students. Thanks, Yumi
