In the wake of sexual assault allegations against former radio host Jian Ghomeshi, Carleton University is reviewing its records of students who did internships at CBC Toronto and offering counselling to anyone who might want it.

The university says it has determined that 53 Carleton journalism students did apprenticeships at the CBC Broadcast Centre in Toronto between 2004 and 2014.

It is still trying to determine whether any of them were at Q, the radio program Ghomeshi hosted.

On Sunday, CBC fired Ghomeshi, one of its best-known radio personalities. Ghomeshi released a statement saying the network was responding to a smear campaign against him. Since then, allegations from nine women — ranging from violence and sexual assault to harassment — have been made public.

There have been no criminal charges against him and none of the allegations has been tested in court.

The Carleton review comes after the emergence of a Twitter account Wednesday called @bigearsteddy, which sent tweets in April accusing Ghomeshi of violent behaviour. One of them, dated April 9, is signed “every female Carleton U media grad.”
