For an announcement in a course it is there on my system (9.1.482.2), immediately under the date options.
In a way I am dismayed that it is so visible as I would be wary of the risk of overuse and " you might have set all these alert rules but we will routinely override them".

Now you've lost me Sarah, I only have an "Add Announcement" button, not a Web Announcement option. Where is that?
I don't have a "Override User Notification Settings" in my Add Announcements form.
Very confused!
Thanks
Andy

Maybe I'm being really stupid too...but when you create an announcement, under Web Announcement Options there a tick box that says "Override User Notification Settings (send email to all users, even those that choose not to receive announcemetn notifications by email)".
cheers

Blackboard 9.1, Announcements & Email
Hi ,
I?m more than likely being really stupid here, but on our Blackboard 9.1 test environment, it looks like there is no option to email announcements to students.
This used to be a radio button in version 8.0, but seems to no longer exist.
Any advice would be appreciated, as this is one area of key functionality that our academics are likely to miss.
Thanks
Andy Raistrick
