Flag for students when assigning admin access

It would be helpful to have some kind of indicator if a student is inadvertently being assigned administrative access. We had this happen recently when some student IDs were included on a list of faculty who needed to be designated Canvas admins. If there had been a pop-up or some other kind of flag that there were students on the list, they would not have been added and we could have avoided a potential FERPA violation.

Great idea! This seems like a simple change that would implement some important protections.
