  I have multiple student users on this blog. When a student graduates, I want to remove them as a user from the blog. But will removing the user delete their posts? Will their name stop showing up as the author of the posts they created? I want the students to still have visible credit for their posts.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
