A staff member may be recommended for this honor by any current employee, faculty member, administrator, or student. Recommendations will be approved by the Chancellor, Unit Vice Chancellor, Associate Vice Chancellor of Human Resources, and Staff Senate.

Members, or former members, of the University of North Carolina Greensboro staff may qualify for Emeritus Status upon meeting all of the following criteria:

  • Retirement from UNCG with a minimum of 10 years of full-time service at the university in either of the following classifications at the time of retirement: SHRA, EHRA Non-Faculty
