Originating Site

You can only edit a person's bio if you have editing rights on that person's "originating site" -- the website of their home administrative unit.

The originating site appears in the "Person" window for the person's bio.

The originating site can only be changed by CHSSWeb. Contact us if you need to change an originating site.
