My student account can see only one other student in the ClassList
My "learner" user has permission to view the classlist, but when I view it for my course, I see only 1 user (who happened to create their account after mine). I do not see the other learners who were already enrolled in that course, nor the instructor. Is there a permission I'm missing?
