Crime on the Campuses and Fact File: Crime Data from 774 Colleges and Universities.
Lederman, Douglas
Chronicle of Higher Education, v40 n22 pA31-41 Feb 2 1994
Table details crime data 1991 and 1992 from 774 colleges and universities including reported incidents and number of arrests by type of crime. Shows robberies and assaults on college campuses are increasing. However, because of confusion about the Student Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act, the federal law requiring colleges to report crime statistics, interpretation of the data is difficult. (MSE)
