WEST
LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) -- The FBI says Purdue University has the
second-most reports of hate crimes among the country's colleges.
The
Journal & Courier reports (http://on.jconline.com/UVP9D1 )
that the seven alleged hate crimes reported on the West Lafayette
campus in 2011 was the highest number among Indiana colleges.
The
FBI report says five of the Purdue incidents reflected racial bias
and two were related to religion. The offenses involved assault,
intimidation and vandalized property.
One
hundred hate crimes were reported in Indiana last year, including 13
on college campuses.
Besides
Purdue, hate crimes were reported at Indiana State, Indiana
University-Southeast and Indiana University-Purdue
University-Indianapolis.
IU-Bloomington
was one of around 500 campuses reporting zero hate crimes to the FBI.
But IU's annual security report logs three hate crimes in 2011.
