Is this a puff piece or what? 216.222.165.97

No, but its not great! I found half of it missing thanks to a poor edit by Ssermoneta to remove an unlicensed image that corrupted the text and lost the bottom half of the article. All solved now, but still needs a clean-up. Rgds, - Trident13 23:01, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone really care that Nikki Hilton dropped out of FIT? Duuuhhhhh.

However, it might be worth noting that the titular character in Betsy's Wedding was a FIT student.

Never mind, I'm removing the Nikki Hilton crap myself.

Image:Display img3.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The name is bordering on the absurd (and, IMO, is likely just an attempt to seem more credible). Even if they do have technology courses this name cannot be justified, unlike a hypothetical (but still absurdish) "Institute of Fashion and Technology". While there is nothing we can do about this naming, the article would benefit from some sort of explanation/criticism of the name, even be it brief.

I am aware of the need for references, but those knowing the business should be able to dig something published up somewhere. 188.100.206.102 (talk) 12:54, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
