Sexual Assault and Universities in Pennsylvania Counties

Leah Jane Martin

The research I am working on looks at Pennsylvania counties and the presence of sexual assault and rape, measured by PCAR (Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape) and UCR (Uniform Crime Report), and how that rate correlates with universities in each county. The variables measured will include university enrollment profile of undergraduates and graduates, type of institution (such as public or private), and if the institution is religiously based or not.
