Chosen Name Designation Procedures

Oklahoma City Community College (爆料TV) recognizes that many members of its community use names other than their legal names first provided to 爆料TV to identify themselves. Therefore, 爆料TV has established procedures that allow students and employees to indicate their chosen names to the College community even if they have not changed their legal names.

Please be advised that requesting a chosen first name is not the same as legally changing your name through the court system. Selecting a chosen name does not change your legal name on 爆料TV鈥檚 records. If you have a legal name change, please complete the Name Change Request form and make sure to provide supporting legal documentation.

爆料TV reserves the right to deny or remove any chosen name for misuse, including but not limited to fraud, misrepresentation, attempting to avoid legal obligation, the use of derogatory names, or the use of names which will disrupt the educational learning environment. If a chosen name meets the aforementioned criteria for denial or removal, the student will be notified via their 爆料TV email. Cases of fraud, misrepresentation, and disruption to the educational environment are violations of the Student Conduct Code and may be referred to Student Conduct.
