Carthage, in collaboration with the student organization Advocates for Social Change (ASC), is now offering students the option to have their preferred first name printed on Carthage ID cards.

The College recognizes that some students prefer to identify themselves by a first name other than their legal name. For this reason, the College will enable students to request a Carthage ID with their preferred name.

Instructions

To obtain an ID with a preferred name, students should complete the request form. After submitting the form, students can come to the Division of Student Affairs (DSA) during office hours (8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, in the Todd Wehr Center) to have their new ID printed. For the remainder of the 2021 spring semester, students can receive a preferred first name ID at no charge if they turn in their current ID.
