Hello everyone and happy Wednesday. I hope you all are having a good week. The weather yesterday gave us a little bit of everything- sunshine and downpours, brisk temperatures, and warm moments. The fall season is certainly upon us and the energy and vibrancy are palpable.

Zoom Recordings and Panopto Update and January 13, 2023 Deadline

Your Zoom recordings are now automatically uploaded and saved to Panopto, where you can view, edit, and share your work if desired. However, we need your help. The Cal Poly Humboldt Zoom account has reached capacity, and your videos are backed up in your personal Panopto Account. Therefore, your Zoom recordings need to be deleted from the Cal Poly Zoom account. Please delete your videos from your Zoom accounts by January 13, 2023, or contact the Help Desk at help@humboldt.edu ahead of that date as they are available to help you through this process. You will find archived recordings in your Panopto "Meeting Recordings" folder. And remember if you have any links to your recording that point to Zoom, they will need to be replaced with links that now point to your Panopto recordings. After January 13, 2023, all videos that remain stored in Zoom, will be deleted.
