How to Update Your Directory Profile

How to Update Your Directory Profile

Every College of Design employee with a 95-number and an active UO email (…@uoregon.edu) has their own dedicated directory page in the CASIT profile system, the university’s directory. These pages are displayed on our websites automatically, if you do not see your information or if it is not up to date, make sure to visit your CASIT profile.

It is your responsibility to keep these pages up to date with your title, contact info, bio, research, media mentions, and awards, as prospective students will use the information on these profiles to decide whether to apply to our programs. In addition, these are some of the most visited pages throughout the university; keeping your profile up to date can ensure that our partners are able to identify subject matter experts for new stories and other storytelling opportunities at a glance.

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 profile system home page, casprofile.uoregon.edu, and log in using your Duck ID (view detailed instructions on the university communications page for logging in).

Important: 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 needed. Use your DUCKID!

Making edits:

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: Rich Margerum, Ben Clark (faculty), Louie Bottaro (staff).

Adding a photo:

You are able to add or replace your headshot directly on your profile’s main page. Photos should be professional in nature, clearly show your face, and ideally taken in natural light. You can read more guidance from the Visual Communications team and look at the upcoming free headshot photo events at the bottom of the page here: https://communications.uoregon.edu/uo-brand/applying-the-brand/photography/professional-portraits.

If you’d like help adding or replacing your headshot, please email a help request and a high-resolution file to the College of Design Communications Team.

Need a new photo? You can request one from the College of Design Communications Team or go to one of the photo events hosted by Central Communications that occur multiple times a year.

Double-checking details:

When editing the “Information” section of your profile on the CAS Profile 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 the Communications Team. 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 the Communications Team 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 the Communications Team. Making changes to these boxes yourself may result in your profile accidentally disappearing from areas of our directory.

Seeing your changes:

The CAS Profile 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 the Communications Team.
