A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :
Destination Kent State offers academic and co-curricular connections to incoming students. The first part of DKS is Advising and Registration, which includes a visit to Kent State where students will become familiar the University, receive their Flashcard, and register for their first classes. DKS offers break out sessions with detailed information as well as inviting offices on campus to table.
The Office of Sustainability participated in tabling letting incoming students know about: transportation options available on campus: bike sharing, zip car, PARTA transportation, and recycling on campus as well as sign up to receive information from the Office of Sustainability.
Also included is information about Zip Car, our car sharing program on campus, during one of the break out sessions for parents and students
