This message to all faculty and staff has been approved by Jane Livingston, Associate Vice President and Chief Information Officer.

Information Technology Services (ITS) and the Office of Distance Learning (ODL) have teamed up to create recommendations for how to secure Zoom meetings and class sessions and help ensure FSU has a safe and welcoming learning and gathering space.

Today’s tip is:

Create a Waiting Room. Adding this Meeting Options feature allows you to control when a participant joins the meeting. Let people in all at once or one at a time, and if you see a name you don’t recognize, don’t let them in. This is great for small meetings or meetings with a co-host who can help manage participants.
