Your position seems entirely reasonable to me. I chat to some of my former students now and then online.. but yeah, totally a year or more after I taught them.
As a student who has had a prof with a facebook invite us to friend her at the beginning of a course, I am totally agreeing with you here. I thought that was incredibly awkward, but evidently people like your student and my prof feel differently. (Granted, I also feel intensely uncomfortable with profs who invite me out for beer, and not just because I don't drink). What you have posted here as what you might tell her looks pretty inoffensive to me.

You would have dishonored me, my house and all the line of my forefathers.
Such an act cries out for blood.
Oh wait you said "facebook" oh nevermind. I was thinking about something else entirely.
Qapla,
Tim
