SUBJECT:

Revised Academic Personnel Policy 120

The University has issued revised APM 120, Emeritus Titles, which is effective immediately. The revision, added as a footnote to APM 120-10, expands the definition of retirement for purposes of granting Emeritus status as provided in Standing Order of The Regents 103.5 by conferring Emeritus status on those faculty who separate from UC while receiving disability income from UCRP, if they are otherwise eligible for Emeritus status.

The amendment also clarifies the existing practices of:

- Granting Emeritus status only to those faculty who retire within 120 days of separation from UC.

- Granting emeritus status to faculty who take lump sum cashouts, within 120 days of separation from UC, rather than regular service retirement.

The revised policy may be found at:
