User Policy for Blackboard

  1. Students' enrollment information will be typically loaded to Blackboard two weeks before the semester starts.
  2. Students who drop or withdraw from a course will be removed from your Blackboard courses automatically. Your Blackboard course rosters will now reflect your official Banner rosters. The process runs every three hours 24/7; however, changes in your Bb roster will not appear unless the change was officially made in Banner. 
  3. If a student drops a course or is dropped, and is reinstated or re-registers, student work that had been completed will be restored.
  4. Instructors can still change the users' availability in a course:  Changing a students availability in your course  and hide the student in the Grade Center  (You may want to do this for students whom may not have formally withdrawn from the course, or just stopped coming to the course without taking any action.)
  5. Instructors can still add students who are not officially enrolled in your course and faculty who are not officially assigned to the course in Banner. (Both students and faculty must have an existing Bb account to be added.)
  6. Instructors will NO LONGER be able to delete students from courses, in order to maintain the integrity of the aligned Bb and Banner rosters,
  7. You must contact CIT staff if you need an instructor removed from your course.
  8. It's NOT suggested to add students from courses. It will disturb the Banner syncing process.
