My Org Units is a custom widget that allows all users to search and navigate to different types of org units they are enrolled in, such as colleges, departments, semesters, groups, sections, course offerings, and course templates. You can use the My Org Units widget to go to other org units aside from their enrolled course offerings, bypassing the need for access to the Org Unit Editor.
