Consider who can Bypass the Lobby
The default setting is "People in my Organization". This means that anyone with access to the meeting link and have an @brocku.ca email address can go directly into the meeting. Anyone that is linking to the meeting from a different email address (or is not logged into brocku.ca) will be sent to a lobby to await admission. Any participant in the meeting can admit people into the meeting from the lobby (changing the Roles in a meeting can change this option).
Selecting "Everyone" is not recommended as it may compromise privacy and expose those officially in the class to unwelcome participants.
Setting the lobby to "only me" is helpful when you want to admit one individual to a meeting at a time. For example, if you have set up an office hour, each person who accesses the meeting will be place in a lobby, or waiting space, and you can admit them one at a time.
