Percentage of new employees (faculty and staff) that are offered orientation and/or outreach and guidance materials that cover sustainability topics:
74

A brief description of how sustainability is included in new employee orientation (including how multiple dimensions of sustainability are addressed):

New employees, not faculty at this time, are mandated to attend and listen to a presentation about Syracuse University sustainability. We address LEED buildings, the Climate Action Plan, sustainable purchasing and how to be sustainability in the office, classroom and residence.

Tenured track faculty 922 + full time non tenured track Faculty 212 = 1134
Staff full time 3279

1134+3279= 4413
3279/4413 = 74% attend New Employee Orientation
