 The Census is the definitive list of who is enrolled in your class at the beginning of the semester. In order to drop a student before the Census Day, log into the Faculty menu and choose Census roster, then choose the semester you want. Notice that the Census roster hasn't been completed yet, and you can see what the date range is for submitting your Census. Choose the course whose Census you want to enter, and you'll see a list of the students. There's a Drop Student column with checkboxes. Check the boxes for the students you want to drop. These are the ones who haven't shown up to class. When you click the Submit button, you'll then see a page that lists the students you selected. If you want to drop them and send them an email informing them of it, click the Submit button. When you come back, you'll see that those students are no longer in the list. You can continue to drop students, or, if you're finished, click the Confirm and Finalize My Roster checkbox, and then click the Submit button. You will then see the list of all the students showing who has been dropped and who hasn't. Repeat this process for all the courses that you are teaching this semester, and congratulations, you will have completed your Census.
