All retired faculty who remain in the Ithaca area and desire office space on campus will be guaranteed a minimum of a desk, file cabinet, book case, basic telephone connections in shared office space, with a continuation of basic clerical support. Space will be allocated by the department chair taking into account departmental needs and space availability. When office space is unavailable within the department, the Dean will make space available as close to the department as possible. Money not spent in a particular year may be carried forward into subsequent years, but not beyond the fifth year. Retired faculty will be eligible for hire-back arrangements for specified periods of time.
Emeritus faculty are to be welcome to attend departmental faculty meetings.
Each department will set its own policies regarding voting rights and privileges, but these policies will be put in writing. The committee will advise the faculty and dean on matters of importance to emeritus faculty. The chair of the committee will be an emeritus faculty member. I have indicated in A.1. where the location of this office will be. This database will serve as a clearinghouse of opportunities, and as a resource for faculty considering retirement.
