My dilemma is in whether or not I should reveal the crush at the end of the semester (after grades have been turned in). (I respect teachers a great deal and I am aware of the ethical boundary that cannot be passed, if I reveal my crush I do not intend to act on it). I hesitate because I will be a student in his department next semester (but not in his class). I have managed to keep very quiet on this. I do not flirt. It's possible that he suspects the crush, but I don't think he knows for certain. There have been several instances in which he would not enter an elevator unless there were other people besides he and I. So, I ask what others think are the benefits and risks of revealing my crush?

Romance knows no boundary.
However, looks like he is aware of your "feelings" for him. May be that's the reason why he wont enter an elevator alone with you.
So its important for you to know if he likes you before you express your "crush". By the way are you both single? If not, its a dangerous territory to tread upon.

Good Lord Woman are you really 36 and still acting like this? If you like him ask him out when the semester is over. Nothing ventured nothing gained, but drop the school girl act it cannot be very attractive on a grown woman.

HAhaha....omg...I went through the same thing years ago!! I fell
hard for my professor in college. I found him very amusing and
sweet. I liked his personality. I hid my feelings too. And I too had
to weigh everything....but I finally decided to ask him if he wanted
to go do something sometime.....of course, I waited till end of
semester. He accepted. I was thrilled. We saw each other for a
few months, but we were'nt meant to be together. At the time I
didn't understand why...but now I do. But we parted friends...I will
always be glad for the time I did spend w/ him. He would give me
cards that would say I am a "special" person. That made my self
esteem go up. So,....go for it....just be causious, ya know. And
just have fun....if you do go out with him. Lotsa Luck.....

you are old enough to do anything and only you can gage the risk if he learns about your feelings, if you think he can be attracted to you , why not. but if there is no positive sign then just forget it and turn your attention to someone else.

Well you both are mature adults. You both could live with the outcome whenever you decide to tell him.

Go ahead and make a move on him..
Should be no problem unless he ( or you ) is married...
