here is the form letter I am sending you in response to your e-mails. Perhaps reading this here will prevent further e-mails.
I understand your situation, but I cannot start a waitlist until the
first day of class. Permission codes usually happen on the second or
third class meeting. The film department has a formula for
prioritizing the waitlist that often undermines chronological
waitlists, so it’s more fair to everyone to just show up and go from
there.
See you then!
