A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:

We sent out a survey to our student body that asked their primary method of going to and from classes (for students who live on campus) or their primary method of going to and from campus (for students who live off campus.) We received responses from over 15% of the student body with correctly proportional representation of the campus based on class year, academic division (humanities, social sciences, engineering, etc.) and involvement (in greek life, athletics, etc.)
