Photo Roster
Clicking the Photo Roster button will produce a pdf version of the photo roster for the section you are viewing. The photo roster is produced in a new window, so be sure your pop-up blocker is set to allow pop-ups.

The class roster will always reflect up-to-the-minute enrollment in your class. The photo roster of your enrolled students is updated every four hours during the week and every six hours on the weekend. You may experience a temporary discrepancy between students actually enrolled in the class and the enrolled students listed on the photo roster. The last time the photo roster information was updated is listed on the photo roster page. Only the first three instructors are listed on the photo roster due to space limitations.

If the course section you are viewing was just added to the student information system, it could take up to four hours before a photo roster is available and a message will appear if the photo roster is not available.

Student photos are private, non-directory information and protected under federal law (FERPA). The use of photos on class rosters is for the legitimate educational interest of the instructor only. Proper care should be taken to protect the privacy of your students, including proper destruction of this photo class roster upon discontinuation of use.
