status. The only way the status changes to “Closed” is if we process the request from the “Request for Drop” report. This seems to be a glitch, and it is causing inconsistency on the report.

Student request WD should no longer be an option in the attendance feature after the last day to WD on our calendar. Ive wants to verify that this is for the Instructor role only.

Notes from MCCB: 
