Benefits and Privileges
In general, emeritus/emerita faculty are considered normal faculty members and are entitled to the most benefits and privileges as an active faculty members. Faculty granted emeritus/emerita status upon retirement will maintain their existing ACE Account, UNLVMail, and Rebelmail (if granted). There are some exceptions/modifications to these benefits.

Zoom is not included as a benefit and is only available to active employees designated as active in Workday. Emeritus/emerita, however, may use Google Meet to host meetings as a benefit of their UNLVMail access.
Computers
Departments may choose to check out UNLV barcoded computers to emeritus/emerita faculty. OIT does not check equipment out to emeritus/emerita faculty. However, OIT can support UNLV barcoded devices once checked out by other department.
As with active faculty, emeritus/emerita faculty do not have access to computer labs.
Software
If you were granted a UNLV barcoded computer, you may request software to be installed. Please see the software catalog for available software. Some software does require a cost your department must pay.
If you don't have a UNLV barcoded computer, you can still obtain Microsoft Office 365 at no charge with your UNLVMail address.
Library Access
Emeritus/emerita faculty continue to be able to access Library Resources, including databases. Faculty should use their existing ACE Account for access. For more information or assistance, please contact the Library directly.
