I don't know the total number of victims. In a sense I think we are all victims as these attacks are at the very least tragic and we feel something for the people who died and the people who lost a loved one and all the people who were injured. But, obviously more people are going to go to college than be directly impacted by a terror attack.

I graduated and paid off student debt many moons ago.
If I get shot it would more likely be by some domestic gun owner terrorist at a movie or mall.

You should ask if it is more likely that a loved one of ours faces ......

Most of us won't ever know anyone hit by a terrorist attack but most of us do know someone with huge student debt.
