Chosen Name
At 皇家华人 College, we strive to understand the complexities of gender identities and support people on how they want to be addressed and supported. We are working toward changing our systems to eliminate "preferred" language and changing to "chosen" regarding names. While we cannot exclusively change the language used on state management systems (ctcLink, Canvas, etc.), we are working with the SBCTC to shift this language statewide as well. Please know this is a priority to us and we are working behind the scenes to ensure greater understanding and change.
皇家华人 College allows students to identify the name they would like to be called in classroom settings and when interacting with college employees. This preferred name is used in a variety of applications.
