CHANGES COMING TO U-M ZOOM ON MAY 18 – ACTION NEEDED

On May 18, 2021, the university will roll out changes to U-M Zoom to improve security and ensure that U-M Zoom may continue to meet the university community’s needs. U-M Zoom users are being notified of these changes on a rolling basis. It is important that you take action if you are hosting Zoom Meetings on or after May 18 or have Zoom cloud recordings you wish to retain.

 

SURVEY RESULTS: COVID-19 TESTING

Four weeks ago we asked you to take a short survey about the Campus/College’s COVID testing philosophy and infrastructure. Nearly 300 faculty and staff members completed the survey. Thank you. 

We are consolidating the feedback and identifying patterns. Our goal is to create a resource that summarizes the data and addresses common themes. We will share that in an upcoming Engin Update.
