h3. Student / Instructor View of the Membership Page {bgcolor}
h5. Student
When a student displays a Membership page, it displays that student's information and the information of only those students who have chosen to display their personal information. (To comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, Stellar keeps a student's personal information private until the student explicitly chooses to make her or his name and other information available to other class members.)

Students can choose to make themselves Visible. The "Visible" flag is meant for students to opt-in to showing themselves to their classmates on Stellar. If no one in the class has opted to make themselves visible, all the student will see when they click on the Membership link and see the list is themselves.

h5. Instructor
When an instructor or TA displays a Membership page, it displays the full class or section list.
