To the School of the Arts:

Please work with the administration staff in the FIlm Department to cover the positions necessary to keep the equipment room and insurance office fully available to the students throughout the entire summer. 

Thank you.

I have been reading your stories about the projects hitting a wall because the equipment lockers are staying locked for the season. The administration is still quiet but your constant pressure is finally forcing people in the department to acknowledge that our summer work cannot happen without their support.

Seeing this level of support reminds me exactly why I started this fight for my fellow film students. We are finally proving that our access to tools during the summer is not a luxury but a necessity for our craft.

How are we supposed to finish our senior thesis if we cant get the gear? Really unfair to those of us paying tuition for the full year.

Summer is when we actually have the time to shoot since classes are over. dont take that away from us.

The equipment room needs to be open 12 months a year. Students work on films all summer long and this is just closing off our resources.
