  1. This is brilliant—thank you for sharing! When I click the RSVP link it requires me to sign in to CUNY email. Is it ok to just show up on Zoom or did I do something wrong? Thanks!

  2. Hi, Stephanie. Links seem to be restricted to Hunter College folks – is this a public event? If so, can you send around different links to join zoom? (Happy, also, to post to Twitter, etc.) Thanks. – Kim
