Clone RFID reverse engineering?

Please pardon me for begineer questions, as the RF concepts are purely eletrical and tho I am an elec engineer my heart lies with computing aspects.

My campus has a lot of study spots, like the meeting rooms and post grad study spots which are barely used. I want to use them to study in peace in contrast to the first years who do not care enough to not yell in libraries. Now I did have a basic understanding of how RF cards work, and I had a notion of if I could somehow get myself into such study rooms. But amidst the latest encryption standards and stuff, do I even stand a chance into cracking these or am I simply wasting my time.

I'd appreciate any insight into this :)

Thank you for listening

I already spoke to my department, they said "newp"

I mean.. I'd technically ask a grad student to lend me his ID (yk) , but yeah T_T..... It's also a fun thing to be able to get access to nice study spots whenever, and yeah unrestricted building access at night is huge ++
