The CDSC Youtube channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp30xPnzVktEvwEMW6h2eTA

This Youtube account is a "brand account" which is a special kind of Youtube-only Google account that has shared account access from a range of other Google accounts.

All the faculty should have access to the account. If you want access and don't have it, you should contact a faculty member at your institution and they should be add you at this URL: https://myaccount.google.com/brandaccounts

There are really only two main things we would need access to the account for:

;Uploading videos: This is pretty self-explanatory. Once the video is published, it will show up in our group channel.
;Adding other videos to our channel page: Because videos can only be in one channel, it can't actually be in our channel if we don't upload video. That said, if there is some other video (e.g., added by a conference or a department or something), we can still add it to the page by first adding to a special playlist which is shown on that page. To do this we need to: (a) log into the brand account in the normal "switch accounts" way and then (b) right click on the three dots icon on a video and click "add to playlist" and then click the "Other CDSC videos" list.

Once we hit 100 subscribers we get to choose a custom URL. Don't forget to like and subscribe!
