A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
In order to park on Ohio University's campus, one must have a parking permit. Students must purchase student parking permits. We estimated the maximum percentage of students that commute with the only driver in the vehicle by dividing the number of parking permits sold to students by the total number of students enrolled at the university (excluding distance education students). This number should be an overestimate of the single occupancy drivers and an underestimate of those who use more sustainable commuting options.
