Sponsored DND Accounts

< Previous | Next >

Peter Kiewit Computing Services provides a way in which people who are actively working to fulfill the academic mission of Dartmouth can have a DND account when they are not a regular paid employee or student. Examples of these types of people are temporary employees who are paid through a temp agency rather than Dartmouth, visiting scholars, or research associates. Friends and family members of Dartmouth employees and students are not eligible for sponsored accounts, unless they are actively helping to pursue Dartmouth's academic mission themselves.

Senior officers of the College must approve the creation of these accounts to ensure the request is a legitimate one. Because the DND controls access to many resources that are restricted to Dartmouth community members, ranging from Library resources to networking resources, only those people who are actually engaged in Dartmouth work should be granted an account. People with a sponsored DND account have all the rights and privileges a regular employee or student has, including using site-licensed software, purchasing items from Computer Sales and Service, and acquiring computing support. If accounts are granted inappropriately, the services that should be provided to those pursuing the mission of Dartmouth could be delayed.
