    Higher Education members, your programs bring together many audiences, departments, priorities, and spaces. These recordings offer ideas for creating consistency without losing the flexibility that makes campus events special.

    A few takeaways to bring into the conversation

    • Underused space can become a strategic asset. Stony Brook's story invites teams to look at campus venues not just as logistical resources, but as opportunities to support institutional revenue and growth.

    • Governance creates room to scale. The University of Washington session highlights the value of shared standards, central oversight, and data integrity when many teams are running events.

    • Repeatable registration practices reduce friction. UT Austin's playbook points to the importance of building processes that can serve different programs without starting from scratch each time.

    Recommended recordings:

    • How Stony Brook University turned underused space into a strategic revenue stream - for rethinking the value of campus space.

    • How the University of Washington scaled Cvent without sacrificing control - for balancing scale with governance and consistency.

    • Inside UT Austin's playbook for scalable event and registration builds - for making registration easier to manage across your institution.
