In accordance with the Blackboard Course Retention Policy, all Blackboard courses older than Fall 2005 will be deleted. DoIT has scheduled this removal for Thursday, August 25, 2011 at 3 p.m. No downtime will be required. Instructors are encouraged to download and keep a copy of the Grade Center for any affected courses. Instructors may also archive an entire course, and keep a local copy for their records. Be aware though that only DoIT system administrators can "restore" an archived course on the UMBC Blackboard production server.
