The most recent university involvement with the art department was the addition of a photography emphasis, said Alex Chamberlain, an assistant art professor. "It was, I believe, the last bachelor's degree to be added before we got university status," he said. "And it was required for that. That's part of the reason we ended up getting the bachelor's degree." Chamberlain said the department is still operating on a fairly minimal set of classes because it is seriously understaffed. "We're about 75 percent junct," he said. "We only have six e or seven faculty up here. e We've been asking for more faculty for a while, and we e haven't received a faculty I since hired." was well, position, With only six classrooms and five emphases photography the departbeing one of them ment is not built to accommodate the increasing demand for classes and studios, said McGarren Flack, an assistant art professor and the adviser in the art depaitment. Photography alone requires two different types of studios: a set up room for shooting and a computer lab for editing, he said. "We don't have stuff that you would find in a standard photography studio," Flack said. "We have a couple of flash heads, but they're like from the 1970s We have over here." nothing full-tim- $ full-tim- . stiEDNEs g Ay full-tim- - , . - 20, 2016 ApHIL t , - '' o , s .
