I read in the church bulletin that the preacher of the day, filling the pulpit in the absence of a full-time pastor, was Dr. James A. Langley, executive director editor emeritus of the D.C. Baptist Convention. A title of nobility, editor emeritus is. I expected the best from his sermon. Sure enough, we were in the Book of Micah, Chapter 6, Verse 8, as Dr. Langley noted, often considered “the very essence of the Bible.” “And what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?” The words may appear so simple, Dr. Langley said, “but they are so demanding.” And while not every Baptist preacher would attempt mixing MarK Twain with Micah, such is the leeway granted editor emerituses.

Applied to the decision to resign, I read the formula this way: It was fitting, because Pope Benedict [XVI] realized he was losing the strength necessary for his arduous office. He could do it, because long before, he had already thought out theologically, in a groundbreaking way, the possibility of popes emeriti in the future. And so then he did it.

emerita (feminine singular)
emeriti (masculine plural)
emerituses (masculine plural rare)
emeritae (feminine plural)

emèrit

retired, but retaining an honorific version of a previous title

PIE word
 *h₁eǵʰs
The adjective is a learned borrowing from Latin ēmeritus (“(having been) earned, (having been) merited; (having been) served, having done one’s service”), the perfect passive participle of ēmereō (“to earn, merit; to gain by service; (military) to complete one’s obligation to serve, to serve out one’s time”), from ex- (prefix meaning ‘away; out’) + mereō (“to deserve, merit; to acquire, earn, get, obtain; to render service to; to serve”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *(s)mer- (“to allot; to assign”)).
The noun is derived from the adjective. The plural form emeriti is borrowed from Latin ēmeritī.

Martin Engels said: “I am not posted on dyke-bridges, but if it is a Dutch scheme there may be something in it. That engineer made a mistake by calling the city officials emerituses.

The motion to investigate was made by commission member Victor Bussie, state president of the AFL-CIO, who said it was desirable to determine “whether or not university and college funds are being paid to people who are not performing useful work.” The only “no” vote on Mr. Bussie’s motion was cast by Commission Chairman Vanue Lacour, who argued that the code of ethics was never intended to apply to college and university affairs.
