A brief description of the policies and/or programs:
Incoming freshman are given the option to offset their travel costs to orientation by donating to the Sustainability Fund when they register for orientation. If they are traveling east of the Mississippi River they can donate $10, if they are traveling west of the Mississippi River they can donate $15, and if they are traveling from another country they can donate $25. About $1,200-2,000 are raised for the fund each year thanks to these new student's donations.
