tcsh `cd` always issues a printout of `$PWD`. How do I disable this?

Someone in IT thought it would be a good idea to modify the default behavior of the command cd in our tcsh environment. As of Monday the "upgraded" version of cd always prints out $PWD after it navigates to the new directory.

e.g.

% cd ~/
Directory: /nfs/pdx/home/rbroger1

which cd yields no results so it isn't being alias'd.

Is there some environment variable or normal tcsh variable that is being set in our setup scripts to produce this output? I don't want to change all my scripts to use a wrappered or alias'd cd. I just want plain ol' cd.
