Of all you nice journalism and mass communications students through out the U.S., two-thirds of you are female. With the exception of a bare handful, you're under the age of 25.
But your departments are headed up by white (90%) males (64%) over the age of 55? This information comes from a survey conducted by Thomas Kunkel, dean of the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland, reported on here.
Do you think this is a bad thing?
In its context, I don't necessarily think we should be throwing up our hands and prophesying doom -- yet. The good news is that over 60% of these guys have at least 5 years of practical experience, an unheard of number in other liberal arts majors.
