Description
always set
UserScript.assigned_at
when assigning student to section. this causes the most recently assigned section to show up as the user's primary course. The primary course is what we redirect the student to on sign-in, and is the highlighted course on /home for students and teachers.Collateral Damage
None, AFAIK. I don't see any other places that assigned_at is surfaced in the product besides those listed above. @bencodeorg and @poorvasingal have also confirmed that we shouldn't be relying on the old behavior anywhere.
