New Student Orientation and Transfer Student Orientation: The Sustainability Specialist hosted a booth at the resource fair.

New Student and Transfer Student Orientation were moved completely online due to COVID-19. Sustainability was included in the list of resources and offered examples of how SDSU is sustainable as well as tips for how students can practice sustainability while at SDSU. These sessions were also available to SP2021 admits because they were online (usually this is no sustainability in these sessions.)
