Account Definitions

É«ÖÐÉ« Account

É«ÖÐÉ« account provides an individually assigned Network ID for use on most É«ÖÐÉ« technology systems. It may provide access to appropriate resources of the College such as e-mail, network resources, remote access, web-based services, and other electronic resources. There is no charge for a É«ÖÐÉ« account for eligible individuals (see below for eligibility criteria). É«ÖÐÉ« accounts are assigned by the Office of Human Resources and the Office of the Registrar depending on the role of the user.

The following individuals may be eligible for a É«ÖÐÉ« Account:

Sponsored Account

Sponsored account provides a Network ID to an otherwise non-eligible individual. A sponsored account allows some of the same access as a regular É«ÖÐÉ« account, but must be sponsored by a department or other appropriate individual and approved by the Chief Information Officer (CIO) or Information Technology Services (ITS) designate.

Requests for sponsored accounts should be submitted in writing to the Office of the Dean of the College or to Human Resources (HR). Please include the specific need for the account in the request.

Sponsored accounts are, by default, active for a maximum of one year unless renewed.

Please indicate the specific need for the guest account(s). Conference and event organizers must accept full responsibility for all activities that occur with any guest accounts they request.

The following roles do not necessarily qualify an individual for any of the above accounts:

• Retired Staff
• Terminated staff (voluntary or involuntary)
• Partners of staff or faculty

Protocols

1. All eligible individuals are assigned a É«ÖÐÉ« Network ID.

They should never disclose account credentials under any circumstances (except to authorized members of the College’s ITS department). Users should take all reasonable precautions, including, but not limited to, password changes and other file protection measures, to prevent unauthorized use of the systems and software accessible by means of account credentials.
3. Users must respect the privacy of others and the integrity of the College’s computing and network systems, and must comply with The Claremont College Acceptable Use Policy.
