An automated process eliminates HRIS access, except Employee Self Service, for those who have separated from the university ― no need to submit a HRIS Access Form to delete access for these individuals. However, for those who have had a change in responsibilities, a HRIS Access Form needs to be completed and submitted to modify security access.
The HRIS Access Report assists with tracking HRIS security access and may be run at any time. Path: Workforce Administration > Workforce Reports > HRIS Access

For the Fall 2011 semester, graduating students may not work beyond December 17, 2011. The hourly student employee must be put on a different type of appointment if the department wishes to employ them beyond that date.
Current students who are working during the fall semester, but are not graduating and will not be enrolled for the spring semester, may be employed up until the week classes begin for the spring semester. These employees would need to be put on a different type of appointment if you wish to employ them beyond January 14, 2012.
New students for the spring semester may begin employment starting the first pay period of the spring semester. New students may be hired January 8, 2012 or after.
