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

At freshmen orientation, recycling bins are distributed, UTA Bus passes are activated, and reusable water bottles are given out to students and their families.
At the Get to Know Your Community event, there are several tables displaying sustainability at Westminster and all incoming students attend.
The Environmental Center meets with all commuter students to talk about sustainable transportation options.

In packets that students receive before orientation, there are handouts that describe the measures Westminster is taking toward climate change and our campus commitment to reduce carbon emissions by 2020.
