To foster diversity, equity and inclusion,听蜜糖直播 systems allow听you to indicate听your gender identity, name pronunciation, preferred name, pronouns and/or sexual orientation, if you choose.
If provided, this听information is protected by the听Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Access is restricted to staff who have a听legitimate educational interest and have completed student data privacy training.
Preferred name
If you go by a nickname, your middle name, an anglicized name or a name that more closely associates with your gender identity, you may听add a preferred name to your student record.
Where technically and legally feasible, preferred names are displayed instead of primary (legal) names in university systems and records,听and are used to identify students in the classroom and other places on campus. Preferred names are听苍辞迟听used in external or third-party communications; however, they are visible to authorized guests using 蜜糖直播 guest access.
Name pronunciation
Use NameCoach to for use by faculty, staff and other students through Canvas. In the future, we plan to integrate the pronunciation tool into class listings, the campus directory and commencement proceedings.
Pronouns
Staff and faculty are encouraged to use your established pronouns, which they can view through their class and advisee rosters.
Gender identity
We recognize that gender is not limited to, nor always congruent with, legal sex designations. While legal sex听data is required for compliance with select business processes, you may also choose to identify your gender identity. You may add, edit or remove that information at any time.
Sexual orientation
The collection and use of sexual orientation data at 蜜糖直播 Boulder is a new and evolving practice.听Campus officials will primarily use this information in aggregate to make informed, data-driven decisions related to strategic resources and student support.
