I. Some departments are colleges → False ( It is possible but not definite.)
II. Some schools are colleges → True ( We know that some universities are colleges and all universities are schools. Hence, some part of school is colleges.)
III. Some universities are departments → False ( As we can see in the diagram all universities are schools and no school is a department. Hence, no university will be a department.)
I∨. All colleges are universities → False ( As we can see in the diagram some part of the college is universities and there can be a possibility of all colleges can be universities. Hence, the definite conclusion is false.)
Hence, the correct answer is "option 2".
