<div class="">Hi Patti,<br class="">
<br class="">
I found a sentence that illustrates my question to the editor: “Each makes their own travel arrangements.” <br class="">
<br class="">
My old-school self would say his or her instead of their: but I think usage has overtaken that old rule?<br class="">
<br class="">
All best,<br class="">
Anne<br class="">
