“I’m Surprised it Took this Long”

The city of New Haven has removed the words “in the year of our Lord” from all of its high-school diplomas this year, in a stroke that the city says will make the diplomas match all their other official public documents. School superintendent Reginald Mayo said: “I’m surprised it took this long for someone to notice it. We certainly don’t want to offend anyone.”
