On Feb. 8 at 8 a.m., Campus Technology Services (CTS) will remove Zoom recordings from the spring 2021 and summer 2021 semesters.
If you have recordings created between Feb. 1, 2021 and Aug. 22, 2021 that you wish to keep, you can store them locally on your computer or upload them to a YouTube channel in LakerApps. Please do not store videos in Brightspace or Google Drive due to performance degradation and storage limits on each platform.
Best practice for the use of recordings for campus lectures, meetings and events suggest that they be culled on a regular basis. These recordings are generally only relevant in the semester in which they are created and utilized. In particular, lectures should not be used in subsequent semesters to protect the privacy of students in the class.
Additionally, the SUNY Oswego Zoom license gives the campus a specific amount of storage to save recordings and the university is working to live within these limits. Given this, the campus needs to institute regular removals of past recordings to ensure there is enough storage for current and future semesters.
Please contact the Help Desk with any questions you may have related to either of these changes.
