Cleaning out the closets of the house we inherited from my husband's great-aunt, we found several fur coats. It didn't seem right to stuff them in the Goodwill bag, so we kept them. I would never buy a new fur, but is it wrong to wear an old one I didn't pay for, as a parody of fashion-conscious women who do?

At Harvard, the recent news about People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has focused on its “naked” fur protest in the Square and the related arrests of six activists, including a Harvard junior. This is the sort of PETA activity that titillates the media and leads some to think that the controversial organization begins and ends with its “shock tactics,” but headline-grabbing stunts only scratch the surface of PETA’s work on behalf of animals.
