Thornton University's student body participates in community service at a higher rate than any other university in the state. Ramirez is a student at Thornton. Therefore, Ramirez must participate in community service more than any student at any other university.
The reasoning in the argument is flawed because it
- assumes that a trait holding for a group as a whole must hold for each member taken individually
- overlooks the possibility that Ramirez is not a representative student at Thornton
- fails to specify what level of involvement counts as participating in community service
- presumes that community service is the only valid measure of a student's contribution to society
- concludes that Thornton's students serve more than students at every university in the nation
