Thanks for all these comments!

However somethings else maybe going on... it's failing and I don't know 
why.

Even with this code.

class WelcomeController < ApplicationController
  def index


      unless params[:location][:id].blank?
        # location is set
        @teachers = Teacher.all
        @locations = Location.all

      else
        # no location set
        @teachers = Teacher.all
        @locations = Location.all

      end

  end


end

it fails with

You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]
