An instructor created a survey with a written response question configured to allow students to upload a file. She wanted them to anonymously submit this file as peer reviews.

My "administrator" role doesn't allow survey reports in courses, but it has all of the access in roles in permissions. I compared the "faculty" role permissions under the survey, and they can do it, but have less access. Is this a bug? Anyone else having issues with that?
