> * A declaration of instructors’ pronouns and a request for students’ pronoun preferences. - Asking for students' pronouns is good practice and the professor should use them if provided. It is unreasonable to demand that professors provide theirs. It should be understood that if pronouns are not explicitly stated then individuals wish to go by their biological pronouns.

I must be misunderstanding this. If I were teaching a class, am I really expected to solicit every single student for what their preferred pronouns are?

I'm fine with people's pronouns, but it is so rare, how does it make sense to ask everyone?

I actually know a trans person, and she told me that she hates how some people are constantly drawing attention to trans people.

I interpreted the request broadly as "there should be some opportunity for an individual to indicate atypical pronoun use", not that professors need to stand up and formally question poll the class on which pronouns they use.
