How to Update Your Directory Profile

Every SOJC faculty and staff member and graduate employee has their own page on the Faculty and Staff Directory on our website. Keeping these pages up to date with your title, contact info, bio, research, media mentions, and awards is important. Prospective students consult them often when deciding whether to apply to our programs, and they are among the most popular pages on our website. You can update your content yourself through the university’s CASIT profile system. Review the instructions below to keep your profile up to date.

Logging in:

Visit the CASIT site and log in using your Duck ID (view detailed instructions for logging in).
Important: make sure to log in with your Duck ID. Using an alternate email address to log in can result in accidentally duplicating your profile account. You’ll be able to add an alternate email to your profile after you’re logged in, if you wish.

Making edits:

Start by reviewing the Quick Reference guide from UO Communications, and if needed, consult additional detailed instructions for editing your profile and adding new profile sections. Your profile can include sections for your bio, education, honors and awards, publications, research interests, and more. We encourage everyone to have a bio section at a minimum, but the more robust your profile, the better!

Need inspiration? Check out some of your peers’ profiles: Seth Lewis (faculty), Chris Chávez (faculty), Donna Davis (faculty), Sally Garner (staff).

Adding a photo:

If you’d like to add or replace your headshot, please email a high-resolution file to Allison VanSciver. Photos should be professional in nature, clearly show your face, and ideally taken in natural light.

Need a new photo? Contact Jeremy Parker to arrange a free headshot session with one of our photographers.

Double-checking details:

When editing the “Information” section of your profile on the CASIT site, there are several small details that need careful consideration. Please pay attention to the following:

  • Do not make changes to the “Affiliation” field (i.e. Faculty, Staff, etc.). If you feel this section is inaccurate, please contact Allison VanSciver. Making changes in this field yourself may result in your profile accidentally disappearing from our directory.
  • Verify that your title, phone number, and office address are correct. If any of this information is incorrect, feel free to update it yourself, but please send the updated information to Allison VanSciver so that we can update records elsewhere.
  • Double-check that the selections in the “Departments” and “Teaching Level” boxes match the areas you teach in. If any of this information is incorrect, please contact Allison VanSciver. Making changes to these boxes yourself may result in your profile accidentally disappearing from areas of our directory.

Seeing your changes:

The CASIT system must sync with our website before your edits will be reflected in our Directory, and this can take up to 24 hours. Due to the age of the system, you might also need to clear your browser cache and/or restart your browser before you can see the changes you’ve made. If it’s been more than 24 hours and you’ve completed the steps above and still don’t see your edits, please contact Allison VanSciver.
