MSU community should save, migrate ANGEL data before May 15

ANGEL will be retired on May 15, as MSU moves to Desire2Learn for its centrally supported learning management system.

Please move from ANGEL any course, dev course, and group information that you want to save before May 15.

Course graded activities and grading data will be accessible in a read-only format for two years after the retirement to provide information in case course grades are contested.

Training

Many resources are available to support instructors and staff as they transition courses and groups to the D2L.
