I am in no way defending band directors who step over the line... but I think I can explain it. We are with the students way more time than a regular classroom teacher. We are in a position to be away from the normal school situation and location than other teachers. Our students develop very strong personal feelings toward us. We encourage expression of emotions by our very rehearsal techniques. All of these things also help to explain why coaches fall into this pit as well. We must all be very careful and diligent to protect ourselves and the reputations of our students... some of us don't.
