HD video now enabled in Zoom for 1:1 meetings

This is a quick one for your Tuesday Remote Tools Update.

HD video is now available in 1-on-1 Zoom meetings. Huzzah! Now you can see your classmates and coworkers in better, crisper quality.

Note: This only applies to 1-on-1 meetings for the time being. To preserve bandwidth in light of the COVID-19 situation, Zoom is restricting full and standard HD.

Please be sure to use the desktop application in order to take advantage of HD during your Zoom meetings.
