A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about employee commuting, including the timeframe for when the analysis was conducted and how a representative sample was reached, if applicable:
The data was gathered as part of a October 2018 campus-wide parking study, which may skew the data toward more drivers (someone who doesn't drive may have seen the survey and decided not to fill it out because they didn't think it applied to them). The sample size was 4,624.
The percentage of the institution's employees that use each of the following modes as their primary means of transportation to and from campus::
| Percentage (0-100) | |
| Commute with only the driver in the vehicle (excluding motorcycles and scooters) | 67.70 |
| Walk, bicycle, or use other non-motorized means | 7.60 |
| Vanpool or carpool | 8 |
| Take a campus shuttle or public transportation | 15.90 |
| Use a motorcycle, scooter or moped | --- |
| Telecommute for 50 percent or more of their regular work hours | 0 |
