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

At Penn State's New Employee Orientation, our Center for Workplace Learning and Performance introduces the participants to the concept of sustainability, and ways they can become involved, such as the Green Paws (sustainable office practices) Program. A follow-up email sent to new employees includes additional information about sustainability, including links to the sustainability.psu.edu website, an informational video about sustainability at Penn State, and a news article about our Mobius recycling program.
