Nice picture but I am not too sure they would want such a doom and gloom picture to hang in the office. Looks kind of depressing. Kind of like looking at a picture of a rainy day. Maybe if you could brighten it up a bit? Especially for a college PR office...

I would however crop some of the murky water at the bottom and increase the brightness, through curves, of everything but the sky so it doesn't look so gloomy. But yes, its a nice shot.
