the Uncoined Dictionary of College: Words for Four Years That Make You

There is a word for the fear of spiders, but none for the friend found by accident in a corridor who will matter for the rest of your life. The Uncoined Dictionary of College fixes that - and hundreds of other gaps in the language of four years that make you. Wendell Quillfeather names the moments the college experience is made of: the first-day optimism before a single reading is missed, the dormitory wall through which you know your neighbor completely, the night out that becomes the story you'll tell for decades. For each he invents a word and defines it, deadpan, with great tenderness. Funny enough to give and warm enough to keep - the perfect graduation gift, college send-off, or remembrance for anyone who ever attended something that changed them.
