Rawkin' Welcome Week

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
All incoming freshmen and transfer students are invited to attend SOAR. 100% of undergrads are provided an opportunity to participate in orientation. The program is required for all students. Roughly 95% of freshmen attend, and 70% of transfers attend (transfer students are able to do class advising/registration outside of SOAR).
Sustainability Staff are not aware of sustainability being included in graduate student orientation. Thus, 80% of all incoming students are estimated to have the opportunity. S.Eller
