Canisius College follows the recommendation of the Association of Registrars to retain gradebooks for a period of 5 years. D2L courses will be deleted after a period of 5 years.

  • If you are a course instructor, please follow the guidelines on the Start/End Course Checklist to save a copy of your course and a copy of your gradebook. This should be done at the end of each semester, for good measure.
  • If you are a student, please make sure you save your uploaded files and any course files you wish to retain.

For both of these purposes, we recommend Google Drive.
