Have Something To Say ?

    I love the new zoom backgrounds. I also love when themed backgrounds come out like Black History Month and Women’s History Month. Is there a place where we can find those?

    I agree with Jennifer. I came here looking for Awareness/Diversity themes. (Black History Month, Women’s History Month, Pride, etc)

    My creative colleagues made their backgrounds, particularly for Black History Month. Is there a place where we can submit theme requests?

      Hi Jennifer and Renea,

      Thanks for sharing your feedback. We have a small but mighty creative team here at UCOP that serves internal and systemwide clients. While we would love to be able to create custom backgrounds, we unfortunately don’t have the bandwidth to create designs for the many holidays and theme months that occur throughout the year and it can lead to disappointment if themes are created for some recognitions but not others. The backgrounds shared in this article are intended to instill a year-round sense of pride and place within the university system for all employees.

    Thank you for sharing these wonderful backgrounds! It would be fantastic if, in the future, you could include one for Agriculture and Natural Resources.

      Hi Adolfo, there is an ANR background. If you sort the list alphabetically, you should see it.

    Happy to see there is an ANR option. Many campuses have several options;) I know you are small and mighty but if possible it would be great to have an ag fields option also for ANR. Thank you!
