Virtual Meeting Backgrounds

With more and more faculty, staff, and students meeting on ZOOM and other apps, it's nice to feel like we're on our beautiful Cambridge campus. So the next time you're in a meeting from home (or wherever), choose one of these great shots of the Lesley grounds as your backdrop. The weather will always be perfect.

How to Upload an Image into Zoom

  1. Choose an image from the Gallery.
  2. Save the image to your desktop. (PC users right-click to save, MAC users Control + click to save.)
  3. In Zoom, click My Meeting Settings if you are an account administrator, or Meeting Settings if you are an account member.
  4. Navigate to the Virtual Background option on the Meeting tab and verify that the setting is enabled. If the setting is disabled, click the Status toggle to enable it. If a verification dialog displays, choose Turn On to verify the change.

Please note that some computers may not be compatible with backgrounds.
