A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
These numbers were calculated based on a voluntary survey that was distributed to students through email. The town of Gunnison is very small ~6,500 people and Western's campus is also very small so most students are able to walk or ride bicycles to campus. In fact, most off campus students live within 1 mile of campus.
