Why do you refuse to answer the question about how to upload the syllabus into Canvas?

After searching your site for hours, you still do not have any clear instruction or guidance as to how to upload an instructor's course syllabus into the canvas portal. Totally unsatisfactory.

Hi @JayStroup ...

There are two main Guides that I'll refer you to re: the Canvas Syllabus:

For your case, what does your syllabus look like?  Do you have it in a Microsoft Word document or a PDF file?  If so, are you wanting to just upload that document to the Syllabus page in your course so that students can view/download it?  Or, do you have text in a document that you want to copy/paste onto the Syllabus page of your course?  At our College, we have a third-party product integrated into our Canvas environment called Simple Syllabus.  So, our instructors do not use the normal Canvas Syllabus page.  Rather, we've set up a template in our Simple Syllabus so that there are specific fields that need to be filled in (other fields are auto-populated with information).

If you could provide some additional details about what your Syllabus looks like and how you'd like it displayed in your course, that will be helpful.  Thanks!
