A brief description of how sustainability is included in new employee orientation:
New employees have the opportunity to attend an orientation by an HR coordinator who is responsible for training and development. She presents a powerpoint slide show, which includes information pertaining to sustainability initiatives on campus. Each year, the Office of Sustainability is asked to review/update the slide. We have also given her brochures about various programs on campus, both hard copies and electronic copies, for new employees to take with them.
