If you want to create a typed list with values, here's the syntax.

Assuming a class of Student like

public class Student {
   public int StudentID { get; set; }
   public string StudentName { get; set; }
 }   

You can make a list like this:

IList studentList = new List() { 
                new Student(){ StudentID=1, StudentName="Bill"},
                new Student(){ StudentID=2, StudentName="Steve"},
                new Student(){ StudentID=3, StudentName="Ram"},
                new Student(){ StudentID=1, StudentName="Moin"}
            };
