Actually, I think you are right!  Whenever we had a gallery opening with
free food, the business school kids walked over.  Another big draw was to
have a music major play and that brought all the musicians over.  Never did
get the education majors over....have no idea what motivates those.  (Maybe
screaming kids in the foyer?)  Mostly nobody has time and when they do,
they want something COMPLETELY recreational which means off campus, booz
and no thinking involved.
