I find it is extremely safe to run. The areas that it farms are typically so remote, and you are in and out in no time. Archaeology is also something that the majority of the people doing it are botting, so there is little human interaction.
I saw something funny the other day though. There was a list of facts about the game and the number 3 title being used in the game is assistant professor. I know not very many people in the game have the patients to level their archaeology, and are so proud they use that as their best title.
