3. Working to obtain more equitable or more inclusive benefits for emeriti.
   
4. Videotaping interviews with distinguished emeriti who played pivotal roles in the growth and development of the campus
   
5. Providing information to emeriti on actions or events relating to their welfare through its newsletters and/or its Web site.
