Roles and Affiliations
Currently, a directory entry’s affiliation with UCI is in the uciAffiliation attribute in the LDAP Directory. This is a multi-valued attribute, so an entry could have one, two or more affiliations. For example, if a person was both a student and staff, they would have the ‘student’,’employee’ and ‘staff’ affiliation (staff as opposed to faculty).
