The Challenge
For Emerson College, being a Division III school often means modest—albeit enthusiastic— crowds at home athletic events. But the passion and commitment of the 200 student-athletes at the Boston school is on par with any large university.
Raising money for the athletic programs, however, is a bigger challenge for Stanford Nance, senior associate director of athletics for external affairs. One way he builds school pride and draws support for the program is by branding every available surface of the college’s athletic facilities with the purple and yellow Emerson Lions’ colors and logos.
The Challenge
A&M announced plans for the new facility in November 2020. When construction was underway, Rick Hall, then-director of rec sports, was concerned about protecting the health of students while working out indoors. For such a high-traffic, high-touch environment, Hall knew encouraging hand sanitizer use would be an effective approach. At the other rec centers, they had tried placing numerous pump bottles on desks, but he sought a more effective strategy.
The Challenge
When Samuel Wyatt began planning a new elementary school in the small West Texas town of Rankin, his top priority was to provide students with a state-of-the-art facility. The school district superintendent searched across the country for creative approaches that enhanced the learning environment, such as a two-story indoor slide in an Atlanta school.
With the heightened focus on health and safety, Wyatt was also looking for innovative methods to reduce the spread of illness and keep students and teachers in school. He was especially interested in finding a better approach to hand hygiene.
