Looking phrase for acronym for the word "camel" frontwards and
backwards.  CAMELLEMAC. It's going to be a joke or slang phrase and
probably offensive according to the person who asked!  It's for extra
credit in a college course.

Hi Beckie,

If it's a palindrome you're after, you can drop the redundant second "L". 

Great to see the education system awarding credits for offensive slang!

p.s. Now what is it you really want to know?

It seems to me that a word with 'camel' spelled forwards and backwards
should be called a palindromedary.

Miss Pink,

You are extremely quick of wit, as always. I love it!

Now, what do you suppose a "Looking phrase" is? hhhmmm .. backwards
and forwards .. ahhhh .. as in a looking glass? A mirror! Now things
are starting to make sense. The phrase sought was "looking" at us all
the time.

There is an old joke that a camel is a horse designed by a committee.

The 'palindromedary' CAMELEMAC could stand for this...

COMMITTEE: A MANAGEMENT EXTRAVAGANZA, LOVING EQUINES, MANUFACTURES A CAMEL

I choose to believe Beckie knows what she wants and is not actually
after a palindrome, but simply a phrase that has "CAMELLEMAC" as an
acronymn. Accordingly and thus:

Campus Area Male Examination League Likes Extremely Muscular Academic Candidates

Corporate Acrimony Means Everyone Loses Lots (Except Maybe A Chairman)

Constipated Antediluvian Monkeys Excrete Little; Low Emissions
Maintain Ark's Cleanliness

and finally, for the moment,

Magnificent "Anti-Climaxes"
