A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :
Ambassadors of Change is a 5 day pre-orientation program for incoming students which focuses on service, community engagement, and active citizenship. Each day focuses on a different social justice topic with relevant and meaningful education, service and reflection. Each year, there is a day that focuses on food insecurity/justice and another that focuses on environmental issues. In 2020, Orientation worked with campus partners to hand out reusable water bottles and canvas tote bags.
The Efroymson Diversity Center hosts a Pre-Orientation program called Dawg Days for new students.
