Conferral of Emeritus status is an honor granted by the Staff Senate and the Department of Human Resources at the UNC Greensboro upon the retirement of staff members who have long, distinguished records of service, dedication, and leadership to the university. 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.
