Courses that are designated as cross-listed, or "meets with", were not being combined properly within Canvas. Technologists investigated the integration between Canvas and UW-Madison's SIS to determine the issue's cause, and a fix was identified. This fix was implemented in production on January 7th at approximately 8:30 AM (CT).

This issue affected courses that have Honors Opt-In sections, grad/undergrad "meets with" sections, sections that are cross-listed across multiple departments but are taught as one course, etc.

Any course sections that were combined manually through the merge/cross-list option within Canvas should remain that way even after the fix was applied. Please see more information on how to manually cross-list sections here: https://kb.wisc.edu/luwmad/page.php?id=62777

If you continue to have issues with a cross-listed course or have any questions, please contact Learn@UW Support.
