The terms "freshman" "sophomore" "junior" and "senior" will now be a thing of the past in a groundbreaking move by Penn State. In an attempt to be more inclusive the school will now refer to their students as "first year students" "second year students" etc.
The original terms were explained to be "decidedly male-specific" and also said terms like "upperclassmen" can be "interpreted as both sexiest and classist".
