A recent survey of U.S. college journalism programs revealed that while concerns over reporter safety have increased, not all students are learning about ways to protect themselves before graduating.
The survey, conducted by volunteer leaders of the RTDNA Safety Committee, received responses from 21 journalism program leaders representing schools that had between 100 and 2,500 journalism undergraduates.
Those respondents gave an average score of 9.05 out of 10 when asked how important it was that students receive training on personal safety, whether physical, mental or digital.
