Ever walked past a campus recycling bin that was heavily contaminated—even though it had a “well-designed” sign? Or had to fight to get any signage approved because of university “aesthetics”? You aren’t alone. Modernizing waste signage on campus is about more than just graphics—it’s about navigating administrative red tape, partnering with facilities, and understanding behavioral psychology to shift actual student habits.
Presenters will share their real-world blueprints for:
- Getting signs approved and deployed across diverse campus spaces
- Aligning with rigid institutional design guidelines
- Utilizing behavioral psychology to defeat “recycling paralysis”
