Buying a computer with grant funds

There are very rare occasions where an emeritus faculty member may be a PI on a grant that allows purchasing a computer.  In that situation, A&S Computing will support the use of, at most, one university-owned computer purchased using faculty member’s grant funds.  That support includes:

                Keeping the Operating System up to date

                Keeping Microsoft Office up to date

                Keeping managed software that the retired / emeritus faculty member is licensed for up to date (these contracts are beyond our control, and many only include active employees in the license).

                Any software that the retired / emeritus faculty member is no longer licensed for will be removed upon retirement.

                The computer will be supported at most until six years from its date of purchase, at which time it will be returned to A&S Computing for proper disposal.
