I'd love to display in the LIST VIEW (full, summary, or threaded views) different color's based on which TYPE was selected...

You can achieve this by using a "style" directive for this attribute. E.g. if your attribute is called "Shift" and entries with value "Day" should be green, value "Swing" should be blue, you should add
Style Shift Day = background-color:green
Style Shift Swing = background-color:blue
(and so on) to the config file.

really I am just wondering if I can change the verbage that ELOG is using for the term TYPE? Is that doable?

As long as I am not missing a key point in your problem, you should be able to define the names of your logbook attributes simply with the "Attribute" directive. So, if you want the users to enter the shift and the name of the shift leader, you would put a line
Attributes = Shift, Shift leader
Options Shift = Day, Swing, ... <and so on>
Options Shift leader = Mike, Edward, John, ... <and so on>
and the logbook display should correctly show "Shift" and "Shift leader" in the header line of each entry ...
