Re: Live streaming

Good Morning,

I'm looking into options for Commencement right now for later this year
(nothing has been firmly decided on how we are handling an onsite
Commencement yet).  I'm thinking Zoom could be a fallback option but I'm
also exploring whether what we were considering using for streaming live
athletic events might be a better option.  In the past, I've used Adobe
Connect successfully to stream a live event so it's probably the same with
Zoom, WebEx, etc.

One of my concerns is the use of prerecorded music - our ASCAP, BMI and
SESAC licenses do not permit streaming prerecorded music so a public
streaming component or social media component needs planning of how to deal
with this.  We've never streamed Commencement before so this would be a
first foray for us into it (if we end up doing this option).

Just as an aside, we've had some outside groups do events in our theater
where they've fed a camera into Zoom and it's worked for those events.
Mostly people presenting at a podium and talking or switching back and
forth with PowerPoint.

Orientation for us is really more about community building as well as
providing information for our incoming students - I've just been pulled
into this as of yesterday.  I see this as a totally different type of event
due to the normal idea that we get incoming students to interact and get to
know each other (and staff get to know them too).  I haven't seen options
yet that are under consideration so this is my gut feeling.  I think this
is going to really mean a totally different experience and not just
repeating what we would do in a live event but I'm waiting to hear from our
Student Life staff about their thoughts.

Just some things I'm thinking about - nothing is definitive right now.

we won’t be having in person commencement or orientations. We are looking
at our Teams environment or possibly our WebEx solution. Any thoughts,
risks, issues with either?
