Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke at the Georgetown Institute For Women, Peace and Security and it seems like hardly anyone showed up.
Clinton's remarks on "Smart Power: Security Through Inclusive Leadership" were delivered at Georgetown's Gaston Hall, an auditorium that seats more than 700 people. However, based on tweets from those who attended the event, many seats were empty.
Update (1:40 p.m.): Georgetown spokesperson Stacy Kerr sent a statement to Business Insider noting there has been large turnout for past events at the school with Clinton. She also suggested the fact it is the last week before final exams may have contributed to lower turnout this time.

The advance team does not have to be competent. Americans are swirling to HRC in a non-stop fashion. It’s all they know.
Regardless of what you think about her, Hillary was once a legitimate star (at least among liberals.) A few years ago, a speech by Hillary at a place like Georgetown would have been standing room only. She's rapidly becoming the political equivalent of an oldies act.
Bill’s coattails; now that’s just what the American people demand for 2016.
Well, you knooooooooowww, she doesn’t really have much to say or have any insight on anything at all.
Would much rather watch some old Bugs Bunny cartoons.
Again, how many young and smart college students want to waste their time with an old/ugly over the hill alcoholic rat like Hill the Liar.
The answer, apparently not that many!
If they pay these speakers a % of the gate, the problem will solve itself.
Why book her during final exams?
Women are no longer an issue.....anyplace....despite the current case in the USSC. There is simply too much bias on the part of the female judges. Disgusting...
At least they didn’t cover the cross behind her.
The more you see, the more you can tell....she' ain't running...The vote simply isn't there.
Sandra the Fluke's alma mater besides....heh heh heh...
Georgetown’s right. My oldest daughter graduated from Georgetown last May. At this time of year, the students barely have time to eat. It has nothing to do with Hillary.
Was Hil paid her usual $250,000 speaking fee?
“Seems that Hillarys advance team is as incompetent as she has been all these years.”
Why so? She got paid in full.
And yet, The Flying Buttress is building her campaign chest one $300,000 check at a time. That’s not a speaking fee, that’s a “you’re our last best hope to build a better world!” endorsement.
I mean, will Fauxcahontas Warren or Comrade Bernie Sanders do any better in 2016?
Too bad, for a second there I was hoping it was because Hillary is a big partial birth abortion fan. Oh well, should have know better; after all it’s not like Georgetown is a Catholic school.
