Summary
CU Boulder's Visual Arts Complex photography lab serves about 150 students per semester. An initiative to mitigate the lab’s environmental impact and improve student experience has succeeded on both fronts. The new approach re-engineered darkroom processes by modifying the types of chemicals used and installing regulators on faucets. The results: reduced administrative time, reduced chemical costs and water usage, reduced generation of hazardous waste, and reduced student time spent in darkroom processing.
