A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :
During new student orientation the UMN Morris Chancellor talks to new students about being at Morris and our sustainability work. Sustainability-related themes are directly discussed during the introduction to campus life.
Additionally, Orientation Group Leaders (OGL) are trained to discuss sustainability at UMN Morris during their tours.
During Orientation/Welcome Week/Homecoming we offer students "sustainability tours" to identify our campus sustainability efforts. During the tour students visit the wind turbines, biomass plant, solar thermal systems, solar PV, green buildings, compost areas, and more.
