UITS policy on computing account termination
The following outline for UITS computing account termination policy is based on the University Information Policy Office (UIPO) publication Eligibility to Use Information Technology Resources:
-
Discontinuing or graduating students: See
What happens to your student computing accounts when you leave IU, graduate, transfer to another campus, or study abroad?
-
Employee resignation: When faculty or staff
members resign, their accounts are automatically disabled following
their resignations, and ultimately deleted. The chair or immediate
supervisor is responsible for instructing employees to dispose of
account contents appropriately.
Note: Retired faculty and staff receive account privileges indefinitely.
-
Terminated employees: When the university
terminates faculty or staff employment, accounts are automatically
disabled following the termination, and ultimately deleted. The chair
or immediate supervisor is responsible for instructing employees to
dispose of account contents appropriately.
-
Computer abuse sanction: After due process, if
the relevant university office (e.g., Dean of Students, Dean of
Faculties, Human Resources) determines that computer account abuse
necessitates loss of computing account privileges, accounts are
disabled.
Note: If you are a student whose accounts have been disabled because you stopped taking classes, you may be able to re-enable them; see As an IU student, can I have my disabled accounts re-enabled?
