ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS

Students must supply their own camera equipment and tripod. Lab fee of $120.00 includes chemicals and handouts. SELECTION FOR PHOTO II: Selection for photo II will be by portfolio review. Time and place of portfolio drop off will be posted in the hall outside photo lab in the basement of Zilkha Gallery. Enrollment will be during the Drop/Add period. MAKE-UP OF PORTFOLIO FOR ADMISSION: Your portfolio should include a minimum of ten exhibition-quality prints and twelve rolls of negatives with corresponding contact proof sheets. These prints and negatives must have been processed by you. This is a minimum; you are welcome to submit additional material. If you have taken a basic photo course at Wesleyan, negatives and contact sheets are not necessary; you need only submit the ten prints plus any contacts, negatives and prints produced since completion of the course here. Required regular lab work sessions will be scheduled weekly.

Unless preregistered students attend the first class meeting or communicate directly with the instructor prior to the first class, they will be dropped from the class list. NOTE: Students must still submit a completed Drop/Add form to the Registrar's Office.

The instructor of this course will not be using the on-line wait list. If you are interested in this course, please contact the instructor directly.
