Either put the file in site-lisp (which is already on everybody's
load-path), or create/modify the file default.el, which is that
``global .emacs file'' you were thinking about.  default.el is
described in the Emacs manual, see the node "Init File" there.

Personally, I think the first solution is cleaner.  But that's just
me.
