Northwestern IT provides an Emeriti exception process established with the Service Desk that facilitates ad hoc requests for a NU-sponsored Adobe Creative Cloud license. Their office has a limited number of licenses available, so this process should only be used by Emeriti who have a work-related need.
To request a license, an Emeritus faculty can send an email to servicedesk@northwestern.edu or call 1-491-4357 (1-HELP).
For additional information regarding Adobe Creative Cloud, please refer to NUIT's website.
If Emeriti faculty are still conducting academic research, the Kellogg Research Support office can provide assistance. They can help with creating websites and applications, manuscript editing, computational consulting, and RA & TA matching.
Their office can be reached by emailing rs@kellogg.northwestern.edu.
