One of the state's schools has only 861 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 1,000 students. For example, for Campus 2 the violent crime rate would be as given below. 6 30,380 (1,000) = (0.00020)(1,000) = 0.20
