Ability to record meetings in private channels
Holding meetings in private channels is really useful (students don't need to know when instructional staff is meeting), but I want the ability to record them like I can in a general channel. Recording 1-1 meetings would also be helpful to international students who could then review them.

Live event concurrency
Increase the number of concurrent live events to more than 15 per tenant - required to enable large cohort remote teaching which is a massive priority for universities at the time of the Coronavirus worldwide incident.
Universities will often have more than 15 large lectures running at the same time and increasing the number of live events to 30 or 45 will allow universities and colleges to remotely teach large numbers concurrently

Meanwhile, feel free to share why you need this in schools and universities. And if increasing number of participants in a meeting (see another UV feedback below) would solve your need: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/599053/suggestions/36681970

Access to Meetings Options when creating a Meeting
Seems to be that you can only change the options for a meeting once it has been created and scheduled.
Please make them available when creating the meeting.
Especially useful if you're using Meet Now for a classroom of children, and you don't want all of them to be a Presenter.
190 votesWhile this is under review, note that we have enabled meeting options for channel “Meet now” while you’re in the meeting. Check out the UV item on that update: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/599053-schools-and-universities/suggestions/39994324
