Different Metrics In Dashboard

For times when we have a specific campaign we're needing to pay close attention to, it would be really helpful to be able to put the metrics on the dashboard.

Total people, how many have been on each email the last week, how many emails sent, opened, clicked, and opted out.

From a chat I had today, I was told the only way to see this info is to go into the campaigns and do this all manually. 

Thank you
