Re: Parental Email Access for Deceased Students

["Ullman, Catherine" <cende () BUFFALO EDU>]

Hi Jim,

Here is our policy for deceased or incapacitated individuals:

Basically, we release to the executor of the estate.  If there isn’t one, it’s up to University counsel.  I hope this 
helps.

Best,
Cathy

Subject: [SECURITY] Parental Email Access for Deceased Students

Many of us, from time to time, have the unfortunate occurrence of a student that passes away while at school.  A 
question was brought to me regarding the granting of access to a deceased student’s email by the parents.  If any of 
your institutions have a policy regarding this, either yes, no or it depends, I would love to pass it along to our 
senior leadership.

Thanks and have a great day,

Jim
