If your course is a Continuous Course, the due dates are automatically assigned depending on when a student is enrolled. However, there is an option to set up Blackout Dates, which are blocks of days during which there will be no due dates or work expected (i.e. Spring Break). Buzz will adjust due dates to account for these Blackout Dates. This can be done from either the Domain level (which means it will affect all courses in your domain) or from the Course level.

To create Blackout Dates , follow the next steps.
