How to share your pronouns with the MHC community.
Overview
MHC allows community members to share their pronouns with each other in a centralized way. Learn about MHC's Pronoun Policy, and read more about where your pronouns will appear in our Pronoun Policy FAQs.
If you shared your pronouns in my.mtholyoke before February 9, 2024, those pronouns have been imported into the pronouns field in Workday. If you want to update your pronouns after that, please review the table below for information relevant to your role at the College.
