Maybe there is - I don't know.  You could post that question and see if
others know.

 Alternatively, why don't you make a view that filters out all Private
meetings and use the mark private function?  Saves having to use 12
Categories to get the same data showing.

 To make a whole bunch of items Private in one fell swoop, view the
Calendar in By Category View, add the Private column (using the Field
Chooser), group by Private (put that field in the Group By Box), then drag
items for the non-private group to the Private one.
