Can my friends join me in the Photography Department labs?

If a lab is very dense and busy and several non-lab users are present, a technician may ask them to leave the space.
Can I eat in the labs and classrooms in the Photo Department?

I still have questions! What should I do?
Not to worry! Head over to the Locations and Contacts page found here and feel free to reach out to any of the administration and staff in the Photography Department.
