Professor Jose Jimenez at U. Colorado (Boulder) and his collaborators have developed and made available a very useful tool for estimating airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2. It is very well documented and the assumptions are clearly stated. Dr. Jimenez is hoping for feedback and intends to update and modify as appropriate.
You can visit the estimator site at
Also, you can actually download the tool by going to file>download on the site.
Here are the estimates for a 35000 person campus with a 13 week quarter

Instructor cases | 2 | cases | |
Student hospitalizations | 30 | hospitalizations | |
Instructor hospitalizations | 0.4 | hospitalizations | |
