The analysis was based on index crime data for each campus and means computed for student population, number of male and female students, undergraduate student age, number of nonwhite students, number of students living in dorms, number of buildings on campus, number of campus acres, and number of index crimes. The results of correlation analyses showed that 10 of the independent variables were positively related to the number of index crimes. As student populations grow, the number of index of crimes is also likely to increase. Variables most closely associated with campus crime included number of male students, size of dormitory population, and number of campus acres. Environmental design, the use of additional physical security features, and the establishment of crime watch programs in residence halls could reduce the incidence of campus crime. 5 tables and 33 references
