Practical Application Scenario
As a result of recent campus safety concerns at Capella University, you have been engaged by
campus security team leaders to gather and analyze data about on-campus crime rates in
schools in the state of Minnesota. Crime data from 181 Minnesota campuses has been
compiled in the Campus Crime Data file. Write a management report for campus security team
leaders analyzing and evaluating campus crime data for Minnesota. Include your findings and
recommendations for your clients. In your report, be sure to examine the following:
What crimes were most commonly committed on Minnesota campuses between 2009 and
2011? Based on the data, would you say the crime rates decreased or increased from 2009 to
2011?
Fig. 1; Frequency Number of Crimes Occurring within 2009-2011
The campus security leaders believe that the total crime rate in public institutions is more than
that in private institutions. They have asked you to test that hypothesis. Describe your results.
Your clients would also like you to develop a 95 percent confidence interval for the difference in
total campus crime rates between public and private institutions in Minnesota. Report your
results.
What, if any, ethical issues should concern you in conducting your research?
