Sunday:

Received email back from the RC photostudio. The professor straight up said no. He also said to check Alice Lloyd hall. I called the housing department and found out it is all off limits because it is under renovations. 

Monday: I emailed the professor back saying that the building is closed and if he had any other suggestions. He mentioned WCC. Mai also was convinced there was a darkroom in the back, which is now a boiler room since this past summer. She also said there is a room upstairs in the photo studio for darkroom work.
I emailed Ana Fernandez with this information, she forwarded it to Joe St. George. There is a darkroom upstairs but its being used for storage and he's sorry he cannot help me.

This is fucking disastrous.
The University that I dump all of my money into can't even resource a small part of my education, why would any other campus?

Tuesday:
Met with Professors, told me to talk to James. Talked to James about how
Professor Hannum would be willing to let me join the photo 385 class for next semester which is like an independent study. He wants to see my work.
Here are a few examples of what I'm going to show him. I had some people in the studios next to me critique the photo portfolio to show him. I also want to better explain my senior thesis to him.
