Input: OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (CBS Atlanta/AP) — Some employees at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee complained about a class aimed at teaching them how to reduce their Southern accents. Now, managers are calling the whole thing off. 
  
 The course had been advertised as a way to feel confident in meetings, when one might need to speak with a more neutral accent. The class was touted as a way to “be remembered for what you say and not how you say it.” 
  
 The six-week course was to be taught by Lisa Scott, “a nationally certified speechpatholigst and accent reduction trainer.” 
  
 Carolyn Ward of ORNL’s Learning and Development Services told the Knoxville News Sentinel that an employee requested the class, so it was offered for others too. 
  
 ORNL spokesman David Keim said the class “probably wasn’t presented in the right way” and managers decided to cancel it after other employees complained. 
  
 “We’ve offered accent reduction training to foreign nationals for years,” Keim said. “But this one obviously surprised some folks.”

 Some Southern-born employees at Oak Ridge objected to a "Southern Accent Reduction" training program, and the national science and energy laboratory, which employs more than 4,000 people in eastern Tennessee, backed down. 
  
 "Given the number of staff here who have Southern accents, this was clearly not received well," said David Keim, communications director for the lab. 
  
 The class, which was to meet for 90 minutes a week for six weeks in August and September, was advertised as being designed to "give employees a more-neutral American accent, and be remembered for what you say and not how you say it." 
  
 The announcement for the class was sent out early last week, but withdrawn within hours, Keim told Reuters. 
  
 The class would also have addressed the differences between Southern grammar and dialects and "standard American English." 
  
 Keim said accent reduction classes have been common for years at the facility, but this was the first time the Southern dialect was being singled out. 
  
 "We have staff from scores of countries and all over the United States. So it is relatively common to see courses helping people who want help with their accent. If you have a researcher with a very thick accent, it benefits them to spend a few hours learning how to mitigate that," he said. 
  
 The lab has never had a problem with a Southern accent, but offered the training in response to requests from some employees, said Keim. 
  
 "People are relatively good-humored about it. No insult was intended, so we're using this as an opportunity for a good ribbing," said Keim, who is looking forward to getting back to promoting regular lab business such as speeches by Nobel laureates and the quest for better superconducting materials.

Output:
Looks like workers at a Tennessee lab are "stuck" with their Southern drawls after all. Management at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is reneging on its offer of a six-week course designed to strip employees of their "y'alls" and "yonders" after people complained about the premise, reports CBS News. The course was pitched as a way to boost workers' confidence in meetings, but "given the number of staff here who have Southern accents, this was clearly not received well," a lab spokesperson tells Reuters. Maybe the instructors can concentrate on helping goats with their accents instead.
