Last August, as part of the University’s larger diversity and inclusiveness initiative, students were given the option to designate their pronoun and gender identity on a newly created
ConnectCarolina Pronoun/Gender Identity page (Personal Information tile >
Pronouns/Gender Identity).
Over the past year, the Office of the University Registrar continued to work with students and campus partners to define other areas where this information should appear.
By the start of fall term, pronoun information provided by students will be visible on faculty rosters generated from ConnectCarolina as well as other ConnectCarolina student pages available to advisors and student services staff. As before, students do not have to provide pronoun information unless they choose to. Prior to the start of fall semester, students will receive an email from the Office of the University Registrar with updated information about where the information is visible and who can see it.
