Post 9: Changes to my study programme

Well,this is going to be a large blog for me because i think that my career has A LOT of deficiencies in its infrastructure,teachers and the curriculum, so basically you can  find issues in any possible area.
First of all, theatrical design is a career from the Faculty of Arts, which means that it belongs to one of the poorest and precarious faculties of Universidad de Chile, so we have a really limited budget to suplement the needs from the different departaments that make up this faculty. Starting with that, we can find the first thing that it should be changed, which is the infrastructure. The Faculty of Arts it's divided in three venues, and this affect the students because, for example when we have the transversal courses (for all arts students) we have to move from Santiago Centro to Ñuñoa for taking a single class and then come back to our departaments, and it affects also when we need to make any formalities like sending certificates or anything, because all the administration is centralized on Artes Centro, and not divided in all the venues. Also from the infrastructure part, in the departament of theater we have really insuficient tools for our learning. The venue is really small and old, and we're mixed with acting students who needs a lot of space for practicing and moving around, so it's really uncomfortable for us, because we need silence to be concentrated in our classes. Also our classrooms have old and damaged chairs and tables (that are actually brought from other faculties that have throw them away) and are small for the quantity of students that needs to be working in big mock-ups for example.
Well, i could be hours talking about this, but that's not the idea.
i'm going to finish this blog by saying that the workload of my major programme should be less demanding and leave us more time to do the jobs we take home (that are massive) and also should be more integrative between the different subjects that we have (which are at least 10 per semester) because otherwise is really hard to keep up, and live a healthy life at the same time.
