Students will also be informed of opportunities and benefits that are available to them due to sustainability programs such as the Yellow Bike program that gives them access to a free bike share/checkout program for campus.

Since the Office of Sustainability has started to focus its efforts and its programming on new students and new student orientation, we have seen a tremendous increase in student participation in sustainability programs. The Yellow Bike program and use of alternative transportation has been specifically notable.
