Allowing selected colleagues, students, or support staff write-access in order that they might help faculty provide the course materials. Provide the services with minimal necessary involvement of the computer system manager so faculty can have control over these resources without having to make unnecessary requests.

The alternative of designation by course name is generally more cumbersome than by faculty username. Designation by faculty username allows the same course to be taught by different individuals in the same or different semesters without the intervention of computer system management who would otherwise have to reassign system permissions to the current instructor.
