Students
For
Sleep
Students for Sleep is an art-student run organization based in Syracuse University. We are publicizing the issue of the lack of sleep around campuses globally. Through this awareness, we are working towards a safer, more accepted idea of public sleep as well as proper sleep techniques and regiments. Sleep, being a touchy subject for not only the peoples of the world, but more specifically for college students, shall be exploited through our collective’s videos, posters, and all around sleep promoting ideals.
Those who can conquer sleep can conquer the world.
This is our aim, our goal. Our small group of 9 designers, artists, filmers, and photographers are fully prepared to wake of this sleepy issue and bring it to life!
