Column 2 Gender What is your gender? (Male = 0, Female = 1)
Column 3 WorkHrs About how many hours per week do you expect to work at an outside job this semester?
Column 4 Distance How far from campus do you live, in kilometres? (0 if on campus)
Column 5 Exercise How often do you exercise (aerobics, running, etc)? (1 = Not At All, 2 = Sometimes, 3 = Regularly)
Column 6 Ipad Do you have an iPad? (1 = No, 2 = Yes)
Question 1
