A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :
The Office of Sustainability educates the Orientation Leaders (OLs) each August on basic sustainability issues on campus. OL's then share this information with incoming freshmen during new student orientation. In addition, the Office of Sustainability co-sponsors a water bottle and literature in new student packets that they receive which includes information on recycling, water bottle filling stations on campus and transportation.
The Office of Sustainability educates Residence Directors (RDs) and Resident Advisors (RAs) each August on recycling, waste and energy use issues in residence halls. RDs and RAs in turn educate Bentley's residential students on living sustainably in Bentley's residence halls.
Transfer students go through the same orientation process as first-year students and therefore receive the same information.
Graduate students attend a Graduate Resources fair where the Office of Sustainability informs attendants of resources and services available on campus from sustainable commuting to farm-to-table programs.
