Total percentage of students (graduate and undergraduate) that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary means of transportation:
60

A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting, including the timeframe for when the analysis was conducted and how a representative sample was reached, if applicable:

63% of students live on campus and close enough to the academic and student centers that commuting by car is not practical or feasible. Some students who live at the further fringes of campus may choose to commute by car from one end of campus to another, despite the actual inconvenience of doing this due to limited parking. The indicated 3% of students who may do this is considered a reasonable estimate.
