Not just for colleges: Massachusetts high school eliminates the title ‘master’

Lowell High School in Massachusetts is demonstrating just how “sensitive” and “tolerant” it is by following the lead of several universities: It will ditch the titles “headmaster” and “housemaster” from its collective vocabulary.

This action is a response to “a major racial incident last year.”

Head of School (used to be “Headmaster”) Brian Martin recommended that the titles be altered this past Wednesday, saying “the school should recognize what those terms have meant in the past.”

“If you look at what’s happened in our times, I think the high school should be part of where we go in the future with our titles and just who we are as a school community,” he added.
