Abstract

As Christopher Hitchings (2008) says in his seminal work, The Secret Life of Words, “A new word is a solution to a problem” (p. 5). This observation proved true many times in my year of directing and teaching international students in the Kansas University Academic Accelerator Program (KUAAP). In fact, that simple phrase became my touchstone and inspiration during the initial terms of the program in 2014-2015.
