Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Information about alternative transportation is also available on the Office of Public Safety parking site:

http://www.ithaca.edu/sacl/safety/parking/

6949 total students (undergraduate and graduate)
~ 250 unlimited ride semester/monthly passes + 15-ride student transit passes sold in Spring 2011 = 4% (250/6949)

2,670 continuing student vehicles parking permits sold in Fall 2010
2670/6949 = 38%
(Note: 103 first year student permits sold, but all first year students live on campus, so these do not contribute to commuting emissions).

Estimated %-age of students who carpool is based upon Spring 2011 commuter survey conducted as part of annual campus greenhouse gas emissions inventory

Estimated %-age of students who use alternate means of getting to school (biking/walking) is based upon that same survey data
