I wonder how "great" it will be when they start doing the "Human Free" makeover they have in mind for everyone. Regards, Albert PeTA: Cruel to Children Where do Donations to the HSUS Go?

I think this is great–start when the budding designers are students so they’ll never want to use fur (and hopefully leather, wool, and silk) in their designs to begin with.

PETA has been doing this for I think 3 or 4 years now (http://www.furisdead.com/feat-robyounkers.asp?int=peta_newsfeed) so Parson’s has been on the right track for a while! Glad to see HSUS is working with them now, too.

Agreed great move. I almost went to Parson’s after high school. I didn’t even know they were into using fur and other inhumane materials at the time. Well glad they’re finally getting wise. I heart HSUS

I think that’s awesome! Are they going to advocate against leather and wool as well or is that too much to ask? I guess they have to start somewhere.

This is great! They should require a class for everyone to graduate that is about issues of animal rights, the envrionment, and ethical labor in the fashion industry. They should talk about things like reptile skin, wool, and leather too. I hope there are more great vegan or at least fur free fashion designers in the future.
