About this tag
The university IT tag covers campus technology changes involving Microsoft Teams and the consolidation of communication and teaching platforms. Recent discussions describe UPEI’s move from Yuja and Collaborate to Teams for video conferencing, recording, and instructional activities, alongside the University of Maryland, Baltimore’s planned migration from Cisco Webex Calling to Teams Calling.

This page brings together university IT coverage focused on platform migrations, Microsoft 365 integration, institutional support, and the practical impact of moving familiar campus services into Teams.
