Overview
Zoom can be used to record an in-person class even when no one is connected remotely to the meeting. As of Fall 2021, this the recommended method of classroom and event recording in the College of Law.

- enter "syracuseuniversity" in the space prompted (this may be automatically filled for you)
- sign in at the SU prompt with your normal NetID and password

- Use teaching station camera controls to adjust position of the camera if desired
- Begin the recording by clicking the Record button and selecting "in the cloud"
