The table shows the crimes that have been reported on and off campuses. The missing data is a result of universities not publishing all of the numbers and certain years for the crime log. In the data below it is clear that liquor law, drug law, and theft are the most common crimes in all of the PASSHE universities. The number of a sexual offenses varies year to year. These numbers are not consistent to show a certain pattern. In the crime report for 2014 the numbers are lower than the last year which could be caused by the awareness and training programs the universities have in place.

The article demonstrates the concept of self-schema through Tory Higgin’s self-discrepancy theory. This is through the three types of self-schema demonstrated by Goddall, who is being asked to leave his position at the University. Firstly, there is the issue of the actual self which according to Higgins would refer an accurate perspective on the individual. It is critical to understand that Goddall is 102 years old and that staff and students have concerns about his ability to work safely. The second type of self-schema shown is the ideal self. Goddall wishes to continue working on campus as he enjoys being a member of the community. The third aspect of Higgin’s theory highlighted is the ought self as Goddall believes he should not be working from home and instead be in an alternative space, such as an office.

We are able to begin to develop abilities in self-directed-studying during our first-year in the college, to be an effective student.
