Please add the option for including the due dates when cloning a course. When cloning within a specific semester, it would be very helpful option and a time saver to be able to include the due dates as well as well as other course data. We require multiple Christian Service classes that are basically the same class, except for their emphasis varies (Evangelism, Institutional Service, Christian Education, etc.) 

All assignments are the same, with the same due date. I want to be able to clone the due dates in these types of situations.
Thanks,
Bobby

  We could definitely use this option as well.

  We would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have this.  Currently we clone the assignments for all our clinical courses (5 assignments per meeting, 13 meeting per quarter, 50 - 70 courses per quarter) but have to enter the due dates individually for each assignment.  This takes days and days.  We'd love to be able to say, for example, these are the due dates for all the courses that meet on Tuesdays rather than hand entering all the due dates for the Tuesday courses.

  Agreed. I am currently running an independent study along with my in-class course. All due dates are identical. The option to clone due dates would be wonderful.

  I am assuming you mean by this to set that all assignments are due on a certain predefined schedule, so that you could have that copy over when you clone the course, correct?
  
  For example, our courses have 8 lessons, one for each week. So if we could define in advance that the assignments for each of those weeks were due at the end of that week (Sun 11:59pm), then we wouldn't have to update each time we cloned the course.

  This would make life so much easier when you're cloning a lot of sections with a lot of assignments!
