Emeritus faculty privileges question

["Davidson, Charles" <cdavidson () WPI EDU>]

Hello,

Recently retirement packages for our faculty were sweetened by offering Emeritus Faculty status. Emeritus faculty are 
provided the same access to their data and equipment as if they were still working for our institution. This is causing 
our IT to have to rethink security, support, access and privileges for these users. How is your organization dealing 
with the following concerns and how you are mitigating the risks involved?

  *   Are your Emeritus faculty allowed to keep their laptops and desktops?
  *   If this equipment is allow to be kept, are they removed from your institution's AD domain?
  *   Are you reimaging these devices and removing them from your institution's AD domain?
  *   What level of support and software are you offering?
  *   Are you allowing the Emeritus faculty access to their home directories?
  *   Are you allowing the Emeritus faculty access to department directories?
  *   Are you allowing the Emeritus faculty access to research directories?
  *   Are you allowing the Emeritus faculty access to their email, etc?

Answering any or all of the above questions would great help in our planning. We are very interested in hearing if 
anyone has found a good solution.

Thanks,
Charlie
