# ON-DEMAND WEBINAR Making the Case: Strategic Planning, Data-Driven Advocacy & Navigating Politics in Housing Tech Decisions
Catch the replay of our candid, conversation-style *Lunch + Learn* webinar where we unpack what it really takes to move housing tech decisions forward—especially in challenging climates.
It’s a tough time to be in higher ed. Budgets are shrinking. Raises are on hold. And restructuring decisions are hitting campuses across North America.
In moments like these, we’re asked to get creative, stay strategic, and make decisions that serve both our teams and our students. But that doesn’t mean doing it alone.
How to advocate for software systems (even when budgets are tight)
### What we cover:
- Common roadblocks—and how to navigate around them
- The politics of campus decision-making
- Why data (even imperfect data) matters more than ever
- Candid advice and hard-earned lessons from seasoned housing leaders
### Featuring:
- **Scott Rausch**, Senior Director of Residence, Sorority, and Fraternity Life at Emory University
- **Trent Pinto**, Director of Resident Education & Development at the University of Cincinnati
- **Moderated by Cate Morrison**, President, eRezLife
