A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation (including how multiple dimensions of sustainability are addressed):
The Office of University Sustainability participates in Involvement and Information Fairs for Freshman and Transfer Orientations. We have a dedicated group of staff members that talk to the new students about internship and volunteer opportunities, and sustainability programs on campus. At this orientation, we also display program information and give a brief presentation for 2-3 minutes. Free giveaways for the New Student Orientation include items such as reusable bags, various items made from recycled materials, and promotional items to increase awareness and exposure to campus sustainability. The Office of University Sustainability also has a dedicated page in the New Student Handbook, and provides campus sustainability facts to orientation tour guides.
