A brief description of how sustainability is included in new employee orientation (including how multiple dimensions of sustainability are addressed):
All new employees receive an audio/video presentation and handouts. The video presentation includes an introduction to university sustainability efforts from the Director of Campus Sustainability. The orientation video was shown for two years of the reporting period, and is being re-developed and will be added back to regular orientation activities. We are only claiming credit for the years that the video was shown.
