Can I Add My Google Calendar, into My Blackboard Calendar?
At this moment, we do not recommend you import your Google Calendar into your Blackboard Calendar. The data will not stay in-sync, so if a new event is added to Google Calendar by you or your course coordinator, it will NOT show up in your Blackboard Calendar.
