Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Dickinson is a residential college. The vast majority (1,979 students in 13/14 academic year) of our students live on campus. We assume that all on campus students walk, bicycle, or use other non-motorized means as their primary method of transportation.
Additionally, there has not been a student commuter survey conducted at Dickinson, but of the students that live off-campus, it is very likely that some percentage of them commute in a more sustainable fashion. Until we conduct an off-campus student commuter survey, however, we report our most conservative estimate of student commuter behavior.
Total on-campus (taking courses at Dickinson main campus) students were determined by using total headcount of on-campus matriculants and non-matriculants averaged between Fall 13/Spring 14 (2186.5 students).
