Does the institution include sustainability prominently in new student orientation?:
A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation:
The Delta College Admissions Office conducts new student orientation sessions and campus tours throughout the year. They also conduct major outreach in high schools and vocational centers. Sustainability is promoted by the inclusion of distribution materials in the student packets including a brochure with removable inserts that address sustainability in student leadership, education, campus services, operations, and community partnerships. The brochure announces sustainability as a guiding principle, the triple bottom line concept, and how to learn more by accessing the sustainability website. Students also receive information to encourage participation in sustainability-focused clubs and events.
Eco Reps schedule campus outreach activities for the start of each semester to introduce programs and initiatives to new students such as alternative transportation, recycling, club participation, sustainable dining options, and volunteer opportunities.
