Public Simple Search
"Find a:"
Select Faculty/Staff or Student (you must make a selection or you will receive an error message)
"Matching:"
Choose whether you want to search for all entries in your search field, or at least one entry. To search for all entries, select all words ("AND" search). To search for at least one entry, select at least one word ("OR" search).
For example: If you know the person's full name or part of it, you would type it in the search field (e.g., "Wendy Wellesley") and use the AND search. If you only know that the person's name is Wendy and that she works in the Chemistry department, you could try an AND search using the keywords "Wendy Chemistry," and your results would contain all Wendys with information relating to Chemistry. However if you entered "Wendy Chemistry" using an OR search, your results would contain all Wendys as well as other people with information relating to Chemistry. NOTE: If you want to search by department, we recommend that you use the advanced search, as it has an extensive pull-down menu of options (e.g., "Center for Work and Service").
When searching for faculty and staff, you can search for their first and last name, e-mail address, job title, Department, phone number, and office location. When searching for students, you can search for their first, last, and middle name, and e-mail address.
"Rows/Page"
Select how many results you want to appear on each page. The maximum number of results that can appear per page is 200.
