What does my network account allow me to access?
Your Butler network account allows access to University-owned computers, software, and systems. Here is a small listing of some of those items:
Upon leaving/graduating from the University, when will my network account stop working?
- Faculty/Staff
- Faculty and staff who no longer meet the Butler Network Account Eligibility Requirements will be notified 20 days prior to deactivation. An email is sent to the account owner and the manager. If the user has not been put back on the network users list AND we have had no information given to us from the department/organization to hold off deletion, the account will be deleted 20 days after the notification is sent (including all emails and files).
- Students
- Affiliates
- Unless stated on your Affiliate form, you will need to re-confirm for Affiliate status. Affiliates and the sponsor will get an email 20 days before expiration. To renew your affiliate status, please contact HR at 317-940-9355 or askhr@butler.edu.
IT recommends doing the following when leaving the University:
- Copy any data to a personal storage location.
- Set an out of office email message with your new contact information.
- Forward any personal emails to your personal email address.
