When I was in speech therapy I did something like this with my speech therapist, but we never stuttered; we just asked random people questions on what they knew about stuttering. We made a survey and my speech therapist would ask people the question and I would write it down. We went onto campus around the busy time and she would just ask people. We did this twice. I never asked the question because I was uncomfortable with doing so. For me, talking in public, talking to people I don't know, and engaging in conversation is difficult. Doing this just provided that most people don't care and know a little about stuttering. I was surprised on the amount that some people knew at least something about stuttering...
