This idea was discussed at Student Council and was unfortunately rejected. Student Council had concerns about how hygene of these pods could be maintained. It was also felt that it would be difficult to 'police' and keep safe and secure. Student Council also didn't want to encourage unhealthy and potentially dangerous working habits.
How do you feel about the addition of some sleeping pods around all campuses? They could be booked online and would offer you a quick 30 minute power nap.
Hi Chris, thanks for submitting this big idea. It got taken to our student council meeting and unfortunately this got rejected. We did not think that we could justify this as they would not be very hygienic for students. We also feel like it would be a very hard thing to 'police' and we'd probably find students using them for a longer time than 30 allocated minutes. This could also encourage unhealthy habits for students as they may spend all night in the library, come and use the nap pods and then head straight to uni etc. This would not be good for them and we wouldn't want to encourage this.
