Warning

We do not support the practice of removing/deleting users from a Blackboard roster. This is done as an audit precaution since this function deletes all records of the student having been in the course and cannot be undone. Instead, we recommend that you make the course unavailable to the user. This maintains the students’ records in the course in case a mistake was made, or the student changes their mind. This will also prevent the student from continuing to access the course material, if that is appropriate for the situation.

Blackboard does not allow instructors to remove other instructors. Please open an RT ticket for a workaround.
