Eliminate Non-Freshmen Options: Tavaris only surveyed freshmen, so we can eliminate the options that don't specify the year. So, A) and B) are out because they include all students, not just freshmen.
Eliminate Specific Option: He surveyed across public universities, not just one, so D) is also not the right answer because it's too specific.
Select Most Representative Group: The survey was done across public universities and only with freshmen, so the best answer is C) Freshmen attending public universities in Arizona. This is the most representative group based on the description of the survey.
