- Your request narrative via the the request form should focus on the faculty member's sustained academic contribution to the university. You can do this within the document or as an attached letter.
- Related, do not note further work post-retirement as a basis for granting emeritus status. Granting emeritus status is not based on working post-retirement.
- Also attach the retiree’s vita to the email request – this will assist in the college-level review.
- If approved at the college-level, the document will be routed through DocuSign for signatures from the TIU Head, Sr. Associate Dean Tracy Kitchel (as the Dean's designee), and OAA. Emeritus status is not officially granted until approved by the Board of Trustees.
