Yes

A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation:
The Office of Sustainability produced a video about waste diversion which was shown at every orientation session in 2010, and provided Orientation Leaders with sustainability "talking points". Sustainability Interns also tabled at each orientation session to make new students aware of campus initiatives, such as sustainability-related clubs, information on how to live sustainably in the residence halls, and the "Beyond Green" Pledge.
