DESCRIPTION:

Dishonor List Day (Banishment List Day) began as a publicity stunt. New Year's Day host the event, given its reputation as a "slow news day." The chances of the stunt gaining traction increased significantly.

Dishonor List Day is when Lake Superior State University releases its official list of Words Banished from the Queen's English for Misuse, Over-Use, and General Uselessness.

The list first ran in 1976.

Each year people from around the world nominate hundred of words and phrases they're sick of hearing. The idea is to purge the offending words and phrases from the language.

LSSU Public Relations Office staff conduct dozens of news interviews, mainly with radio stations throughout North America and sometimes overseas, on all major networks, including Cable News Network, Associated Press, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and more.

Additional stunts created to raise awareness of the university include establishing the mythical Unicorn Hunters and the annual Snowman Burning on the first day of spring.
