To update pronouns, log into your student portal and click on the Student Tab. Once there, you will be able to update pronouns.
To change records to reflect your chosen name, go over academic policies regarding names.
Next, fill out a Chosen Name Request form and submit it to the registrar.
The Registrar’s Office will communicate your request to the Information Technology Office and other administrative offices. Your chosen name will appear on the MyCampus2 portal and on Sakai, including Faculty class lists and Advisee Rosters and will remain in effect until you request otherwise. If selected, your email account and Sakai will be updated to reflect your chosen name. Updates in the various systems typically take up to two weeks to process. Aliases in the standard formats (username@students. pitzer.edu, [email protected]) will be added to our email system to reflect your chosen name.
The current email aliases will be maintained so there is no interruption in mail to you. Your display name will be updated as well.
Note that chosen names are limited to alphabetical characters, hyphen (-), and space. Pitzer College reserves the right to delete a chosen name if it is used inappropriately, such as misrepresentation or fraud.
If desired, you may obtain a campus ID card with your chosen name. The Registrar’s Office will communicate your request to the Claremont Connection office.
Because your legal name is an obligatory element of your college record and held by many offices, there may be occasions when faculty, staff, or other individuals use your legal name instead of your chosen name. There are also purposes for which only legal names are used, such as academic transcripts and documents related to Student Accounts and Financial Aid. Other examples include surveys, reports, and ad hoc rosters. Every effort will be made to minimize such exceptions.
