Nap club idea catches on at Indiana university!

The idea of a nap club at Indiana University South Bend started out as a joke. Then some people slept on it.
Students Michael Duttlinger and Joe Spencer, president and vice president, respectively, point to studies that say napping can heighten creativity, boost memory and increase alertness.

The Nap Club consists of a quiet room with the shades drawn, a few desks and chairs, and six air mattresses, purchased through a small sum allotted to campus clubs.

Up to 15 people can come in to doze. A moderator wakes them up at the appropriate time and "makes sure no one messes with you or your stuff," Duttlinger says.

The room is open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Thursday. So far, the club has attracted a steady stream of nappers, and there are 30 to 35 people on its e-mail list.

The club started simply enough. "We were being funny and talking about starting a club, and I'm, like, 'What should we do?"' recalls Duttlinger. Spencer suggested Duttlinger do something he liked, and napping came to mind.
