Wooldridge Source: These data were collected by Daniel Martin, a former MSU undergraduate, for a final project. They come from the FBI Uniform Crime Reports and are for the year 1992. Data loads lazily.

datasets

Students learning both econometrics and R may find the introduction
to both challenging. The wooldridge data package aims to lighten the task by efficiently
loading any data set found in the text with a single command. Data sets have been
compressed to a fraction of their original size. Documentation files contain page numbers,
the original source, time of publication, and notes from the author suggesting avenues for
further analysis and research. If one needs an introduction to R model syntax, a
vignette contains solutions to examples from chapters of the text.
Data sets are from the 7th edition (Wooldridge 2020, ISBN-13 978-1-337-55886-0),
and are backwards compatible with all previous versions of the text.

A data.frame with 97 observations on 7 variables:<ul>
<li>enroll: total enrollment</li>
<li>priv: =1 if private college</li>
<li>police: employed officers</li>
<li>crime: total campus crimes</li>
<li>lcrime: log(crime)</li>
<li>lenroll: log(enroll)</li>

</ul>

Colleges and universities are now required to provide much better, more detailed crime data. A very rich data set can now be obtained, even a panel data set for colleges across different years. Statistics on male/female ratios, fraction of men/women in fraternities or sororities, policy variables – such as a “safe house” for women on campus, as was started at MSU in 1994 – could be added as explanatory variables. The crime rate in the host town would be a good control.
