Through the media of television and movies, the very mores and customs of our society change and vary. In these fields, UofA alumni have related their thoughts and ideas, ordering the living habits of many. Modeling, the instrument of expression for thought in fashion design, largely helps to dictate our habits of dress and deportment.
