Name, Pronouns, and Related Information Options
Reed recognizes that some members of our community undergo a legal name change during their time at Reed or use names other than their legal name to identify themselves. One way Reed seeks to promote an inclusive community is by allowing all members of the Reed community to indicate their preferred first name, regardless of whether or not they have legally changed their name, pronouns, salutation, and gender on . All members of the Reed community can use IRIS Information Update to update the following personal information:

Instructions for legally changing your name are available from Multnomah County.

This includes the public Reed directory (directory.reed.edu) and the secure Campus directory in IRIS.
For students, preferred first name will also appear on class lists, Moodle courses, Griffin Door, the Residence Life portal, and other student information systems.
Legal first name will continue to be used in limited circumstances as necessary, such as official transcripts and tax and payroll documents.
