Hang on folks. Three points worth bearing in mind:

1. Unless I've got the wrong club, the organisers work for Edinburgh University.

2. It matters not a twopenny damn what your educational achievements are. You're welcome provided you sit and listen and sing traditional songs; if you sing of course.

3. According to the initial post, this survey was not initiated by the organisers, but by someone who goes to the club.

Taking these three facts in conjunction, it seems perfectly possible to me that this survey has been carried by a student at the university as part of an academic exercise. EG., it might have been done by someone who is writing a dissertation on social survey research methods.

Unfortunately we don't know, becuse we've only got this one question, and I can't say any more than that without seeing the rest of the questionnaire. However, I sure would take pity on anyone who tried to carry out a social survey of Mudcatters!
