This College Eliminated Waiting Lines Forever — Here's How

But one forward-thinking institution decided enough was enough. They redesigned their entire campus workflow using automation and self-service systems, resulting in a campus with zero waiting lines. The transformation wasn't cosmetic — it was structural, and the impact was remarkable.
