University of Maryland community members can now enter their preferred display name and pronouns in the UMD Zoom platform. These options are available on the Zoom Profile page, and instructions are provided in this support article: Change Your Display Name and Add Pronouns in Zoom.
Note that the chosen display name and pronouns will be retained rather than being mapped every time the user signs into Zoom using the UMD Central Authentication System (CAS).
Finally, we want to remind our community that faculty, staff, and students are subject to UMD policies and procedures even in an online environment. Any misconduct in violation of these policies should be reported accordingly and may result in discipline.
If you have any questions, please contact the IT Service Desk.
