Does the institution include sustainability prominently in new student orientation?:
Yes

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

During orientation we offer students "sustainability tours" to identify our "green" campus assets.

We highlight our mission and vision as offering a "renewable, sustainable education" at Morris, and that is evident as students driving to campus are welcomed by our two 1.65 U of M wind turbines. One common first night floor activity is a walk up the hill to sit under the turbines. In addition, we highlight the 'hit the lights' stickers and recycling bins prominently featured on campus.
