[ARCHIVED] How can students send a message to administrators?

[tim_littleton]

When students want to send a message to teachers or other students they can use the inbox function.

The only available recipients are teachers, teaching assistants or students. What we would like is for students to see a list of administrators from which they could choose.

Alternatively the help-bar function Ask your instructor a question could be modified or copied to allow students to send to admins.

Is there any way of achieving this?

Yikes.  As far as I know, the way the Inbox works is if you are enrolled in a course with that person.  So in this case, the school would need to have a "school-wide" course that has all students and administrators enrolled in order to message them via Inbox.
