Even if we do with your made up number, that's over 1,000 students at that university. And it may actually quite a bit more. I am an part-time, adjunct professor at the local University. I teach number of on-line classes on a rotating basis and on an "as needed" (which means nobody else wants to). I have an office on campus I share with many other folks like myself where I can hold office hours and such. We have had a number of these sorts of "events" on our campus and they typically garner a few dozen people at most, and the same people tend to go to all of them. So, really the 5% was a very generous guess. If you have some sort of experience that is different than this, I would be happy to hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marissa Amposta, a “student coordinator” at the university is holding four two-hour naps in the library this month to “internally generate student dreams of diversity,” the Daily Egyptian reports. The naps will be part of the Dreaming Diversity Art Installation, which is part of Women’s History Month and apparently real. After the students sleep, they can write their dreams down and pin them to a fabric scroll, which will later be discussed at a panel of women for Women’s History Month. Nicole Tabor, a university employee at the Women’s Resource Center told the Daily Egyptian, “People forget we are still working for equality,” adding “(i)t might never happen if we stop fighting.” http://dailycaller.com/2017/03/08/southern-illinois-university-hosts-library-nap-ins-to-have-dreams-of-diversity/ And the unicorns and pixies can frolic in the background. OH YAH! Sometimes I want to go back drinking, because knowing that is is coming from people who are tasked to prepare our youth to run the country after we are gone makes me want to get drunk.
