Statistics for Crime on College Campuses

Here is a great graphic, showing statistics for crime on U.S. college campuses, via onlinecolleges.net.

As you can see, there has been a marked increase, up 35.6%, in on-campus assaults since the 80's.  54% of those attacks have involved guns.  The largest amount of those have been in dormitories or apartments.  All the more reason to limit guns on campus, where they would be stored in peoples rooms and subject to the whims of people who are in the largest age bracket for deaths from gunfire and gun-related crime.
