In this edition of CampusIDChats, Allegion's Senior Director of Product Management for IoT Platforms and Services, Devin Love, details a couple of campus access trends he's seeing in the university space.

Love offers insights on why IT is playing a more prominent role in conversations with campuses, some typical requests that IT are making, and the major challenges that silo of higher ed is currently facing.
