Are you even going to need to have students that belong to multiple instructors? Are you going to want to know what course the student is taking ? From the associations you've given you don't seem to be storing that bit of information, the best you could work out is that given their instructor there are only certain courses they could be doing. > > Then the other thing I want to do is set a date and time for each > course.
