At approximately 5 p.m. on Monday, June 27, the default behavior will change for some DePaul users when creating a new calendar meeting Microsoft Outlook. Currently, any new calendar meeting for most users will automatically set the meeting as being an online (i.e. Teams) meeting by default. After the upcoming change occurs, new calendar meetings will not be online by default, with the following exceptions: 
- If a user has already directly interacted with this setting in Outlook, the value of the global setting change is ignored.
- Example one: Customer has turned this feature off in their Outlook client. When the setting is changed to Off by default globally, the customers client settings will not be impacted.
- Example two: Customer has turned this feature on in their Outlook client. When the setting is changed to "off by default" globally, the customers client settings will not be impacted.
- When online meetings global settings are changed to “off by default," users who later wish to have online meetings on by default for themselves can update their client settings to turn this feature on.
