To have it appear in the Zoom Classroom, please contact it.helpdesk@biola.edu or call 562.903.4740 and let them know you would like the meeting to appear on the Zoom Classroom touch panel.

    Make your meeting easily accessible to your Zoom Classroom by clicking the Google Calendar button. Check that the time listed is exactly accurate! You could prevent another professor from adding their class to the Zoom Classroom if this is wrong.

    This will open a new event in your Google Calendar (you may need to allow Zoom to access your Biola Google account).
