University researchers are interested in developing a greater understanding of the native people inhabiting Orangeland. The researchers plan to hire a few university students from nearby Orangetown who are familiar with the native nation but are not members themselves. These students are interested in indigenous rights, and their university studies focus on native populations; their knowledge of traditional native customs may contribute to a greater understanding of the native people.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the success of the plan depends?

A. There are native students at the university who the students can talk to.
B. The student representatives have a reasonably strong understanding of the native populations as a result of their studies.
C. Native students would be a better source of information than non-native students studying native populations.
D. Modern technologies available to the researchers allow them to study the native people without direct contact.
E. Most or all native sites are not available in Orangeland.
