The College's Board of Trustees first approved the Policy on Professor Emeritus Status on June 20, 1991, to honor professors who served with great distinction in his or her primary area of responsibility (teaching, counseling, librarianship), and achieved distinction in areas such as service to the College, service to the community, advanced studies, or contributions to his or her academic field.
Since that time, the Board has conferred the designation of Professor Emeritus on four occasions. Below is the list of those with the title Professor Emeritus at Tompkins Cortland Community College.
