If I have a previously illegal copy of software that is now offered under the IU/Microsoft Campus Agreement, is my software now considered a legal copy?
All qualified Indiana University students, faculty, and staff are legally entitled to use the software covered in the IU/Microsoft Campus Agreement (CA). For more regarding eligibility, see IU's software agreement with Microsoft, and consult the "Eligibility" section. However, even if you are entitled to use the software included in the CA, your copies of the software are still illegal. If you would like a legal copy of the most recent version, you can buy it on DVD or download it from IUware.
Note: This information does not apply to the Windows operating system; IU's agreement with Microsoft requires you to purchase a Windows license before you may legally upgrade to a version provided by IU. See Does IU's agreement with Microsoft mean that I don't have to buy an operating system with my new computer?
