​Use of Chosen Names and Pronouns in SHU Systems

SHU Systems are being evaluated to configure them to use Chosen Name when a Legal Name is not required as well as to display pronouns if selected. Below is an up-to-date list of SHU Systems that have been updated as well as those currently being updated to comply with the Sacred Heart University Chosen Name Policy. This will be an ongoing initiative for existing and new systems. 

For detailed information about the policy and procedures related to it, visit the SHU Chosen Name Policy and Procedure page on the SHU website.
