Furthermore, I'd say that the student numbers are not important at all. If Revolution night club had a 90% UW student turnout on a given night, would that justify lower rates at Fed Hall? Sorry Ben, I missed this one before. In any case, I don't understand the point that you're drawing.
To me, assuming the $500 rate is a subsidy (it may not be) from Feds, it is important that this subsidy does an appropriate amount of good for an appropriate number of students.
The most significant good is direct: How many students are taking advantage of ESA's Monday-night sessions?
The other obvious good is a more general good by contributing to our community. A small number of UW students could still be offset by generating significant, broad goodwill in the larger UW community.
Intuitively the Embassy doesn't meet that criteria -- I guess my gut says that any religious event is too "closed" to have a broad enough community appeal to compensate for a small number of UW students.
That's why I think the numbers are important here.
