The University of Tennessee has told its staff and students to stop calling each other 'he', 'she', 'him' and 'her' - and to start referring to one another with terms like 'xe', 'zir' and 'xyr' instead.
The Knoxville branch of the public university, which has 27,400 students, sent a memo round to its members filled with unusual new parts of speech to avoid referring to anybody's gender.
According to a gay rights official at the university, the new language regime will make the university 'welcoming and inclusive' and stop people feeling 'marginalized'.
Witness the death of a University.

And btw, the University of Tennessee did no such thing. No new school policy has been implemented, you shameless, little dicked upvote fisherman.

You know what you're doing Salsa, you know damn well the tards on this site won't actually look into the matter. They see something negative about Tennessee and automatically assume that there's only one side to the story.
This is just Tennessee Hate Viagra to harden Tennessee hate boners, nothing more.

What's the other side of the story? I'm genuinely asking.

Read the quotes in my op. It's not that ambiguous.
I would say any official office at the university. Is that incorrect?

Not sure why you're asking me, you seem to be the expert here. I guess I'll just sit back and watch the death of the university over this with everyone else.

There sure was a lot of bitching and downvoting, but when I ask a few questions everyone disappears. 
No worries. I found the answer myself.

So...someone hacked the .edu site? Or else...

I was asking because if I was incorrect, I wanted to own up to it. But I wasn't incorrect. You guys are just severely embarrassed by this nonsense, and it shows.
