Dear all,
I hope it is okay to use this list for a question that is not about research, but related
in content?
Our queer employees network in Lund would like to encourage leadership to allow students
to change the name that is visible ("nickname") in Canvas, our study platform.
Of course, this is an important issue not least for trans students. So far this is not
possible.
If your uni uses Canvas and it is possible to change the visible name, could you drop me a
quick note? And very briefly state if students can make that change themselves, or go via
study administrators?
Many thanks in advance,
Irina
