A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :

The Office of University Sustainability participates in involvement and information fairs for freshman and transfer student 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 during the orientations include items such as reusable bags, items made from recycled materials, and promotional items to increase awareness about campus sustainability. The Office of University Sustainability also provides campus sustainability facts to orientation tour guides.
