Reword the following survey question so that it is less confusing. Do you disagree with the policy of not allowing first year students parking permits on campus?

Question 2

Two polls were conducted to determine how much support there was for public funding of private schools. However, the results from the two polls were contradictory. One poll asked whether students should attend private school at public expense. The other poll asked How much do you support providing parents with the option of sending their children to the school of their choice  either public, private or parochial  rather than only to the school to which they are assigned? Explain why the wording of the questions may have affected the results.

Answer to Question 1

Do you support the policy that first-year students are not allowed to buy a parking permit on campus?

Answer to Question 2

The poll with the question public expense emphasized the public cost of the program, which may have encouraged a negative response, while the other poll emphasized the freedom of parents to choose the school for their children, which may have encouraged a positive response.
