A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :
Throughout the orientation we encourage and publicize our reducing and recycling processes in the public spaces of our campus. We do this through posters, waste bins (which encourage the separation of your waste, cans/bottles, and paper), water bottle stations to re-fill your reusable water bottles, etc.

Informative handouts are also given to residence, and invites to all students on joining the Blue Team were sent out via email, social media and campus presence.

The Blue Team is a part of the Involvement Fair as well.
