Account Eligibility
CIT provides accounts for persons who have a current or future official status with SUNY Geneseo that requires the use of computing resources.
Official status is controlled by the SUNY Geneseo office responsible for the specific population. Official status is based on data in Banner. Student eligibility is based on Banner Student Data. Employee eligibility is based on HR Data in the state wide HR system which feeds data into Banner daily.
All accounts are limited access 2 weeks after we are first notified of the person leaving the college.

Retirees
Retirees of SUNY Geneseo who are in good standing are eligible to keep access to their Geneseo Email account. Retiree/emeritus accounts that are not being accessed will be removed 1 year after last recorded access, you will be emailed prior to account removal. If you do not want to maintain your email account please contact the HelpDesk. Retirees that keep their accounts must make arrangements with offices they work with to ensure business related documents are transferred and that communications are able to reach the offices. Retirees must update their email signature line to reflect their retired status. Failure to do so may result in loss of email privileges.
Faculty on phased retirements will retain their access in accordance with the above eligibility during their phased period.
If a department would like to maintain services for a retiree beyond limited account access they can follow the processes laid out for Volunteers above.

Governance
Computing Account Eligibility Definitions have been established based on best security practices and consultation with the Information Security Program Team. Consideration has been given to balance appropriate access, audit standards which require timely removal of access when work relationships end, licensing terms of software/services and related costs.
