    Has anyone figured out how to turn off the email notifications for blackboard announcements? They're clogging up my inbox and I don't want another semester of it

    Just how many announcements are you getting? This sounds very strange. You won't often see the same course code running in both semesters, so semester 2 won't be like semester 1 in this regard.

    If by "announcements" you mean email from other students, that's something else. Those aren't "announcements" in any official sense. Under Personal Information / Set Privacy Options / Email options, you can choose to stop students from sending you email. You can't stop instructors from sending you email, which is what I understand by "announcements". This is how they communicate essential information about the course - you want those emails to get through!

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.
