Does the institution administer a graduation pledge through which students pledge to consider social and environmental responsibility in future job and other decisions?:
A brief description of the graduation pledge program:
Graduating Wartburg College seniors can sign a pledge of social and environmental responsibility. The pledge helps to remind graduating seniors to be socially and environmentally responsibility in their future careers. Those who take the pledge receive a pin to wear underneath their gown during graduation and will be recognized during the ceremony by President Colson. The pledge states:
“I pledge to take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organization for which I work.”
Over 70% of the 2013 graduates signed the pledge. Each year education about the importance of the pledge has increased, as well as signatories.
