Okay, don't panic. Nothing's been confirmed, but there's some pretty unsettling talk that Tim Gunn maybe may not possibly appear on the fourth season of Bravo's Project Runway.

It seems his role as fashion den mother's been cutting into his other Parson's related duties. (Walking into the studio, looking at a piece and shrugging is far more time consuming than you think.) People reports:

His responsibilities as chair of the fashion design department at New York City's Parsons school, where Gunn, 53, has worked for 23 years, make him unavailable for filming during the academic year.

Now, we understand Gunn's a big wig at the esteemed fashion school, but we can't help but think the real scheduling conflict arises more from his totally geeky, yet undeniably cool love for miniature houses than his duties counseling Parson's coked-out, bipolar fashionistas.
