The Nu Collitch Dickshunary is a humorous collection of words that
appeared on essays written over a 20-year period by college
students in the author's class on Contemporary Social Problems. The
purpose of the essays, which were meant to be an exercise in
critical thinking, was to give the students an opportunity to
comment on particular problems as they were discussed in the
reading assignments, lectures or in film/video presentations. The
essays not only illustrate the ingenuity and creativity of today's
young people in finding the right words to fit a particular
situation, but they also reveal a high degree of originality in
their spelling practices. In order to preserve some of these "gems"
for posterity the author noted them on 3x5 cards, and over the
years compiled a fairly extensive collection (or collation as one
of his students might write); and in this small volume he has
brought them together for your edification and possible amusement.
