Example 1.6 gave the accompanying data on violent crime on college campuses in Florida during 2005 (from the FBI web site):

University/College Student Enrollment Number of Violent Crimes Reported in 2005 Florida A&M University 13,067 23 Florida Atlantic University 25,319 4 Florida Gulf Coast University 5,955 5 Florida International University 34,865 5 Florida State University 38,431 29 New College of Florida 692 1 Pensacola Junior College 10,879 2 Santa Fe Community College 13,888 3 Tallahassee Community College 12,775 0 University of Central Florida 42,465 19 University of Florida 47,993 17 University of North Florida 14,533 6 University of South Florida 42,238 19 University of West Florida 9,518 1

a. Construct a dotplot using the 14 observations on number of violent crimes reported. Which schools stand out from the rest?

b. One of the Florida schools only has 692 students and a few of the schools are quite a bit larger than the rest.

Because of this, it might make more sense to consider a crime rate by calculating the number of violent crimes reported per 1000 students. For example, for Florida A&M University the violent crime rate would be 23 13067 110002 5 1.00182 110002 5 1.8 Calculate the violent crime rate for the other 13 schools and then use those values to construct a dotplot. Do the same schools stand out as unusual in this dotplot?

c. Based on your answers from parts

(a) and (b), write a couple of sentences commenting on violent crimes reported at Florida universities and colleges in 2005.
