What @mathemachristian.lemm.ee said. I dunno how much shit you want to stir, but they might be using this as an alternative to an approved system for the university, so bringing this up to IT or Dean of Students and concern for FERPA might cause an inquiry. THAT said, you might end up having to use Microsoft TEAMS, or Zoom, or Slack. So I’d think twice before bringing it up.
Computer science students can’t be taught to install anything more obscure than the most popular app, I guess.
I’m surprised they don’t force you to use Slack or Teams so you can become familiar with git repo notifications and project management hell.

From a privacy POV Teams or Slack would probably be preferable to discord tbh.
