1. Joseph Rodriguez is surveying attitudes of the public regarding the ethics of collegiate recruiting of athletes. He goes to a professional baseball game in his city on a Saturday and gets his sample by interviewing 100 people standing in line at one of the hot dog stands.

2. Sarah Kha Lee wanted to analyze the attitudes of her city’s elementary school children toward recycling. She selected 3 schools out of the 75 in her city and surveyed all third, fifth, and seventh graders during their lunch period. This gave her 22 classes, with 601 students all together.
