Gender pronouns are the terms people choose to refer to themselves that reflect their gender identity. These might be he/him, she/her or gender-neutral pronouns such as they/them.
Indicating your pronouns is a personal choice and you have the option to update your Canvas profile to include your personal pronouns. Once you update your pronouns in Canvas, they will appear next to your name in a variety of locations throughout Canvas.
