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

Sustainability staff routinely present at new employee orientations. They inform new staff of what projects are happening on campus. In addition, sustainability staff take new employees on the campus Green Tour to show them the renewable energy infrastructure and discuss options for including these projects into class ciriculum.

A video of campus history and sustainability initiatives has also been shown at past orientations to help staff develop a sense of place, as well as to acquaint them with relevant sustainability topics.
