It's all part of the dumbing down process like "student" instead of "pupil."
To me, a pupil is someone who is being taught and has not yet developed the skills of independent study, whilst a "student" has developed those skills.
also, has anyone noticed how schools no longer have "grounds" but a "campus?"
