Professor Alco Drunkman studied class level and drinking behavior at Wild State University in Boozville, Texas. Every student is required to live in one of six twenty-story-tall dormitories, and has a single room. All dormitory room phone numbers began with the prefix 747 or 757 (e.g., phone numbers are 747-0001 to 757-9999) . He used the student telephone directory, and after a random start selected every 15th student. He then mailed a questionnaire to the 1,000 students selected and had two follow-up postcard reminders. A total of 900 students returned questionnaires. Later, he asked the university registrar whether any students were omitted from the directory.
