Your project is good to go.  Looking forward to seeing II.5 later this
week! 

Specific Comments:

* It looks like you have good plans for fovering the campus by MOS
  interview.  

  As you collect data, start comparing proportions of the various
  kinds of respondents in your sample (m/f, fr/so/jr/sr/5th,
  etc. etc.) with the proportions in each campus's populations, to
  make sure you are getting good representation on at least these
  major demographic variables.

* You state "Our target population is all undergraduate students at
  The University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon who have
  experimented with the consumption of alcohol."  Does this mean you
  will reject anyone who has not experimented?  Or are you interested
  in the opinions of those who have not experimented too?

* You state "we will sample at multiple times on different dates at
  these locations."  I would like to see the plans for this before you
  do the survey.  Also, I'll need to see your plan for which
  respondents to approach (e.g. every 3rd person no matter wat, at
  each sampling site, or??).

* You suggest "We may also consider providing an unbiased, short, and
  optional reading and background information on the subject for each
  possible subject to consider."  Probably this needs to be pretty
  short; respondents' patience is limited.  Also, it will have to be
  pretty neutrally worded or you will bias responses.

* I.4 target pop good

* The key for nonresponders is to practice approaching people to get
  them engaged in your survey.  And I mean, practice.  Do some dry
  runs with a draft of your survey (perhaps not all the same locations
  you will use for the "live" survey) to really practice approaching
  strangers, having a good "pickup line" to get them interested,
  making sure the survey materials are not too long to try their
  patience, etc.
