All - We currently move alumni accounts to a Google Apps domain for alumni (with email address @alumn.ourdomain) which does have its own separate sign-on. We are developing a solution that will maintain the @alumni.ourdomain for alumni, but will leverage our sign-on. As we develop this, we are looking at ways to address the concerns shared by others, including limiting access to resources that alumni should not have by default. We see the value of retaining alumni email, and with the many collaboration and social tools available from Google, we expect this approach will only yield more value over time. *Wole Akpose* On Fri, May 23, 2014 at 2:38 PM, Maria Peluso <mpb () umn edu> wrote:
This is a great topic. We are also struggling with the 'eternal' account issue and want to make a move. My concern lies in data permissions that may be tied to an alumni account. To do this, how to phase-in an approach without a full blown IDM for grad students/researcher assistants who may need continued access, etc.?

Their account stays active for 1 year following their graduation in case email is used for job applications, grad school applications, etc. It also makes it easier to get transcripts and other information. “Eternal” accounts may have been more useful back in the day, but now generally all students have their own personal gmail/yahoo/Hotmail/whatever accounts; many I’ve talked to don’t care about their student account and only use the email because it is basically necessary for some school and professor communications.

Also, is the process the same for UG and Graduate? I really appreciate everyone’s feedback (positive or negative) in this area as we are attempting a major overhaul in this area. Thanks!
