Uyyyy...
My dean/former boss in the states, fresh from a meeting with the academic powers that be, has finally swung to their side and instructed me to find a studio focused on structures.
It doesn't exist here, even at the undergrad level.
I've got two months left and I haven't produced -anything-. I fill the better part of my days just trying to claw my way to the top of an international pile of bullshit. At home, they can't decide what hoops to make me hop through next to stay enrolled at their little oasis of capital-M Modernism. Over here, they're only too happy to let me pick poppies all day, so long as I'm only staying a semester.
I'd be almost ready to chuck grad school altogether if I could work legally in the EU.
The really funny, depressing part of it is that I -want- to work! I'm here to learn, dammit, and I'll give 20 hours a day with the smallest prod, so gimme some learnin already!
