So she collected all of our image files and didn't choosing anything. We soon discovered that she had already pulled the same scam with other schools (Pratt, FIT, Parsons...). This woman is just looking for ways to avoid having to pay for her designs. DO NOT PARTICIPATE! Seriously.

Last year a fried of mine at Parsons in their illustration program told me that the CEO/founder/owner/whatever lady came to Parsons asking for people to design the Astor Place one. Well she went from being nice to hating everything and then they found out she had gone to several other schools doing the same and basically using everyone like unpaid slaves. I hope people don't participate in this, it just looks like she's trying to save money again by not paying the right people to design her bottles. I can’t believe their at this again.
