Investigate a very different university such as a large state school
Be more specific in looking at usage of Tools and Technology
Compare and contrast Freshmen vs. Seniors and Seniors vs. recent grads to see theshift in perspective
Inquire into the differences between students in specific fields of study andstudents who work interdisciplinary
