Southington University's fund-raisers succeeded in getting donations from 80 percent of the potential donors they contacted this year. This rate would be the expected rate if the only potential donors contacted were those who have donated in the past.

【选项】The amount of money raised bt Southington University's fundraiser this year was lower than the amount they had raised in any of the previous several years.
