A new UMB Policy on Preferred Name has been approved, effective May 12, 2021. In support of UMB’s commitment to providing an inclusive environment, this policy has been established to allow members of the University community to indicate their chosen or preferred name even if they have not changed their legal name.
The UMB policy can be found here.
In addition, the Use of Preferred Name Procedure provides instructions for how to use a preferred name for internal interfaces. If you have further questions, please review the Preferred Name FAQ available here.
