University-Owned Machines:
The Microsoft Agreement paid for by Ohio University covers licenses for Office (Windows and Macintosh), upgrades to Windows operating system, and the Microsoft Visual Studio programming tools. It covers university-owned machines. The only cost involved to departments is the cost of the media (DVDs/CDs).
Faculty/Staff (Home-Use Rights):
Software is made available to you because Ohio University has purchased license coverage for the Software through its Microsoft Campus Agreement effective July 1, 2007. Under the Campus Agreement, you have the right to use the Software for campus-related purposes at home. You are not licensed to use the Software at home for personal purposes. You do not own the license(s) or the CDs, rather you are authorized to use the Software and associated media pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Microsoft Campus Agreement during the licensed period starting July 1, 2007 and ending June 30, 2010. You will be required to remove the Software from your home machine immediately upon expiration of the licensed period or earlier if your employment by Ohio University ends. Home-Use Rights for Ohio University include the following product(s): Microsoft Desktop Suite (Windows 32-bit operating system upgrades, Office Professional (Windows & Mac), and CoreCAL).
Students:
The Microsoft Agreement allows Ohio University to offer licenses and media (DVDs/CDs) for Office (Windows and Macintosh) and upgrades to Windows operating system to currently enrolled students at a discounted price. Once the license/media is purchased by the student, they own the license.
