Bb Courses Prior to 2009 to be Deleted August 23-24
Courses older than Winter 2009 will be deleted from Blackboard during the weekend of August 23-24, 2014. This includes:
- Winter 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
- Spring 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
- Summer 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
- Fall 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
UMBC has been using Blackboard since 2000, but since 2009, DoIT has annually deleted Bb courses six (6) years or older. Our goal is to maintain no more than six (6) years of Bb courses on the active production server available via myUMBC or directly at blackboard.umbc.edu. This best practice will keep the system healthy and ensure the Blackboard application can access course data within the allowed "backwards compatibility" timeframe supported by the vendor.
