A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
For 2020-2021, nearly 99% percent of Middlebury's academic year students registered as living on campus without a commuter permit. Because the campus is relatively compact and parking is generally on the outskirts of campus nearly all students walk or bike to get around.
Has the institution gathered data about employee commuting behavior?:
Total percentage of employees that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary mode of transportation:
A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about employee commuting:
We have 217 cars registered by employees. This does not necessarily reflect how many staff and faculty members actually drive into work every day as many of our colleagues are still remote. This percentage was calculated by deducting that 217 from the total number of employees.
Percentage of students and employees that use the following as their primary mode of transportation:
| Percentage of students (0-100) | Percentage of employees (0-100) | |
| Single-occupancy vehicle | 0 | --- |
| Zero-emissions vehicle | --- | --- |
| Walk, cycle, or other non-motorized mode | 98.94 | 0 |
| Vanpool or carpool | 0 | --- |
| Public transport or campus shuttle | 0 | 0 |
| Motorcycle, motorized scooter/bike, or moped | 0 | --- |
