Bye bye to 5th year seniors?

Yesterday the University of Georgia announced that they won't be using the terms freshman, sophomore, etc., any more. Instead, they'll use first-year student, second-year, etc. This is because they want to discourage students from staying on extra years--the university is terribly crowded. As one administrator put it, "We have done much too good a job of making UGa and Athens a warm, welcoming place to be."

The university is so determined to send students on their way that fifth-year undergrads (and beyond) will register last--after the freshmen! I had no idea it was such a problem!

What do you think?
