Consider, if you are conducting #research and are only gathering data from college/university students, then can you reasonably extrapolate to other populations. Third level attendance in areas I work in, ranges - 4.38% to 5.72%.

Ridiculous BBC headline:
"Public sector pay deals help drive up UK borrowing".

Just blame workers wanting decent pay.
