A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about employee commuting:
A survey was conducted of all Carleton College employees. All faculty and staff were surveyed, and 614 responses were recorded. We send this survey out every five years.
The updated survey was conducted in FY21 and the reduction of sustainable commuting options dropped from 28% to 6%, likely because of the pandemic. We do, however, have fewer commuters as more people are working from home.
