Dynamic CollectionView based on inputs

Currently my class that fills my collection view is simple: 

class Search {
// MARK: - Public API
var className = ""
var tutorCenterName = ""

init(className: String, tutorCenterName: String) {
    self.className = className
    self.tutorCenterName = tutorCenterName
}

// MARK: - Private
static func createSearches() -> [Search]
{
    return [
        Search(className: "AC311", tutorCenterName: "ACELAB"),
        Search(className: "CS280", tutorCenterName: "CIS Sandbox")
    ]
}
}

The problem is that createSearches() returns only those hard coded Search objects. I would like to have the user create Search objects in another class that would then add to this array, eventually creating a list of what the user searched for. For some reason I cannot get createSearches() to return an array variable, only a hard coded array of Search objects. Is there a way I can get around this?

If you want the Search class to keep a list of search objects, you could use a class variable, like so:

static var searches: [Search]

along with the appropriate class level methods to control access to it.
