New Hampshire’s Bias-Free Language Guide Pulled

The outcry over the guide led to the guide being pulled.

The University of New Hampshire (UNH) has renounced a controversial “Bias-Free Language Guide” and removed it from the university’s website.

As originally reported by Campus Reform, the University of New Hampshire had compiled a “Bias-Free Language Guide,” which decried terms such as “American,” “mothering,” and “fathering,” as “problematic.” The story went viral yesterday, becoming a trending topic on Facebook, and was picked up by news organizations all across the country. Multiple presidential candidates weighed in on the language guide; Donald Trump denounced it as an “outrage” and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) said UNH was doing its students a “disservice.”
