Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
A survey was conducted and one-third of commuting students submitted responses. Those living on-campus (2195) were added to those commuters who walk, bike, carpool, or take the bus, to calculate the Total Percentage of Students who commute with sustainable methods.
For subcategories, the percentage of commuting students who responded to each method of transportation was multiplied by the overall percent of commuters (of the general student body) to calculate answers.
This data was collected during FY 18-19; the commuter survey administered in fall 2019 is applicable only to the FY 19-20 submission.
Information was not gathered as to who rides a motorcycle, scooter or moped.
