The Sustainability Fellows program targets every student on campus through its educational programming and activities. Nearly all activities are open to all students on campus.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

In reality, this program targets the entire student body and campus community. However, it is realistic and fair to say that not all students engage or even see this programming which is why we are reporting a lower number ~2/3 of our student body. We don't actively take any attendance at events.
