Now that you mention university, Wendy...
I was very surprised to hear that over here, university professors who are addressing all the students in the class, use the word 'colleagues'. (I guess I was expecting something along the lines of 'ladies and gentlemen'.)
Off topic, is there a difference between pronouncing Miss and Ms?
See ya,
