Why am I a student in a course section when I have an instructor account?

How do I change from student to instructor in a course section?

For now, please email oli-help@cmu.edu or click Tech Support from Torus to send a request to be made instructor in the course section. If your email address is different than your instructor account on Torus, please let us know.
