Making selections:

Note that some campuses have multiple departments listed. In these cases, you will be able to choose the campus alone and view the results as a union of the multiple departments, or choose the departments individually and view the results seperately.

Selecting a parent check box will automatically select all of its children checkboxes, except in the case in which a campus has multiple departments.

De-selecting a parent check box will automatically de-select all of its children checkboxes, except in the case in which a campus has multiple departments.

You can individually select and unselect children checkboxes by checking or unchecking them.

A minus - sign next to a checkbox indicates that it is fully expanded. Click - to collapse the group.

A plus + sign next to a checkbox indicates that it is collapsed. Click + to expand the group.
