A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
All students who live on campus (76% of all students) have been included as walking, bicycling, or using other non-motorized means as their primary transportation to get to and from campus. Furthermore, the majority of students living off-campus also use non-motorized means of transportation as their primary method of commuting. However, because significant data on off-campus commuting does not exist, they have not been included in the 76%.

Each month every employee is required to submit their data for that month and the days they engaged in sustainable methods.
