Naturally they develop a sense of camaraderie It's meant to be a competition & a student is speaking out to save another student from elimination!?!?? Starck is so funny to watch though. You should know, being a TEDster! :) Like Lizzie & Starck, I was underwhelmed by the students, but I also feel that the program is essentially flawed when you lump a bunch of anglo students together & dump them in a French city.

This shows a serious lack in todays education system. As a recent fashion design graduate I picked the university I went to because of its teaching style, which is incredibly similar to the way Stark teaches them. It has made me a better designer because of it and I can deal and develop within real life working situations. Reacting quickly because you have no other option. Where did these kids come from they all seem to have good basic ideas but they have no idea how the practicalities of a lot of their products will work as well as just complaining about the work rather than doing the work.
