--most of those studies tend to take into consideration that many assaults aren't recorded, at least the Harvard School of Public Health did . . . I believe they estimated 75% go unreported in college-aged women

ETA: before anyone gets cute with the numbers, the "25% of all women" included the "75% that were never reported to police or other authorities"
