A specific audience focus is on general education students, such as those in GHTH100: Personal Wellness (General Education: Health Sciences), who need to complete "Wellness Passports". TGIF programs specifically address the campus environmental stewardship undergraduate student learning outcomes and immediate actions the students can take to support campus sustainability objectives.

For the 2012-13 TGIF programs, a sample of over 100 participants responded to a series of questions for the purpose of internal program evaluation and improvement.
