Notes

  1. There is no significance to the order of appearance. No assumptions can be made about the contents of the first row, for example.
  2. The UH Username is used to construct the @hawaii.edu email address. It is kept in sync with eduPersonPrincipalName, uhEmail and one of the values for mail (these three are the uid followed by @hawaii.edu)
  3. Note that in about 50 cases more than 1 value may be returned.  There are rare cases where a second UH Username is a requirement.
