Original Note:
Stanford University, a private institution, created this initiative as guideline for their IT department, not for the US as a whole as the story implies. https://itcommunity.stanford.edu/news/introducing-elimination-harmful-language-initiative-website 13% of the students are not Americans, therefore, describing the student body as "American" would be incorrect. https://facts.stanford.edu/academics/undergraduate-profile/
