Preface
5. Revision
Future editions of the USG Glossary will be updated based on upon new or modified material submitted by individual departments and agencies to supporting editors of the Admissions Committee and by annual reviews according to demand. This document contains approximately 12,500 terms selected from a larger preliminary list. Each term was chosen for its interagency significance. This document does not attempt to replace a list of similar terms with a single definition. This collection did identify redundant terms with multiple definitions. Our evaluation is that organizations should consider pursuing legislative changes to identify a single and useful USG definition for broad and informative terms.
