The following data on violent crime on Florida college campuses during 2005 are from the FBI web site.

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 con-sider a crime rate by calculating the number of violent crimes reported per 1,000 students. For example, for Florida A& M University the violent crime rate would be

Calculate the violent crime rate for the other 13 schools. Use these values to construct a second 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.
