Is it an outlier or is the sample just too small?

See interesting article link to research paper Sample size is <100 students at one college

Like, on a certain level I get it. I just get frustrated that so much of my time gets wasted on looking into this stuff. And I have so many conversations with other people I know who ONLY read the pop-science article and not the actual paper, or they read the paper but just skip to the juicy bits.
