Dan -
"Back Matter" is it. It tends to be more of a production term, though:
you don't often (I don't think) see "Back Matter" in a table of
contents.
Since it's an in-house term, you could start calling it "end stuff" or
"final gunk" or....... ;)
On a Friday at the end of the semester, I'm not so sure it's a bad thing
to keep something around that makes people laugh!
