Penn State University will stop using the terms 'freshman', 'sophomore', 'junior', and 'senior', in an attempt to be more inclusive.
Instead, students will be referred to as first-year, second-year, etc.
The proposal, which was approved by the faculty senate, described the terms as "decidedly male-specific" and said terms like 'upperclassmen' can be "interprested as both sexist and classist".
The plan will also remove all "gendered and binary terms" from course and program descriptions.
