The Office is included as part of the resource fair that the students are sent to as part of NSO programming, and allows incoming freshmen to learn more about their options for going green on campus (energy, water, food, recycling and reuse, transport, etc.), volunteer opportunities (in general sustainability as well as the Campus Urban Farm), and how to get involved.
