successful epidemics in class blogging

1. I am doing my research paper on the social ladder of a college student. To answer this it would be very easy to make something trendy and have it spread throughout whatever campus. After what I've read you can make something so small seem so interesting and cool just by going through the right people and the right crowds. Life if I were trying to make iup shoes the first place I would sell my idea is the frats and sororities since they are all a giant collection of people and personalities. Once I get them wearing the shoe, alot of people on campus would take notice and think they must be trendy and cool to wear because a good fraction of campus is wearing them. To help myself spread it even more is I would under price them so that everyone could wear them as well because not everyone has alot of money. This would start an epidemic for sure and would be trendy. (this is just an example I thought of)

2. I thought the number 150 was skeptical at first. But after reading it the numbers and stats make sense.

3. I realize now if you have enough people with the same motive, you can make something very unattractive or uninteresting to something everyone will want to be part of through persuasion and marketing.
