Hi @CarolRobinson1,
It is not possible to disable the Calendar area of Canvas or for a specific course or semester. The Calendar area of Canvas that is available to anyone, including the ability to manually create "My To Do" entries that are associated with a specific course or their personal calendar.
When an teacher/instructor/professor creates Canvas content and populates the content with a "Due" date, that date automatically creates a calendar entry in the course's calendar for everyone.
Regardless of the role of the Canvas user (student or teacher), it is also possible to create "My To Do" entries (either for their personal calendar or associated with a specific course, but only visible to them). Only teachers/instructors/professors have the ability to create "Events" (which everyone in the course can see).

What do you mean by disabling the calendar?
If you don't want there to be any calendar events for a course, just don't post any events on the course calendar, nor set any "due dates" (availability dates are fine) for the course.
I'm pretty sure this isn't currently possible, so I am asking for a feature request for future. My colleagues would like to request for the ability to hide the SpeedGrader average for markers. There is concern that seeing the average might skew how markers mark assignements, e.g. they might be overly generous or stricter…
I have recently setup the Canva for Education Integration with our Canvas instance. We are noticing that if teachers create Assignments using the External tool from their Blueprint course that students who submit their assignments are running into issues. Teachers are unable to see their submissions via the Speedgrader and…
Our college would like to disable the Core Canvas tool "Syllabus" by default, so that it automatically doesn't show on Course Navigation menus. Is that possible? A fellow admin asked our CSM about disabling Syllabus by default, but the CSMs may be understandably busy at the moment. Below I rounded up some past comments…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
