Cal Poly's Zoom service is now linked with the Chancellor's Office Zoom environment to create a unified CSU collaboration experience. This integration supports easier communication and coordination with the Solano campus and other CSU partners.

Once linked, employees across participating campuses can search for one another in a shared directory, message directly, and collaborate on meetings and webinars without manually adding contacts.

## **Key Features**

**Unified Employee Directory**  
Employees across all CSU campuses appear in a shared organizational directory. This makes it simple to locate and connect with colleagues systemwide.

**Streamlined Communication**  
Once connected, employees can direct message, start chats, and collaborate instantly without manually adding external contacts.

**Cross-Campus Meeting Support**  
Employees can assign alternative hosts or grant scheduling permissions to colleagues across campuses, simplifying joint meetings and webinars.

## **Student Privacy Protection**

To protect student privacy, Cal Poly students are excluded from the CSU-wide directory.  
Faculty and staff must use a student’s Cal Poly email address to initiate chats or meeting invitations, since students will not be visible in the shared directory.
