Students at Major University Rely on the Google Search Appliance to Rapidly Plan Course Schedules on the Web

Founded in 1857, Illinois State University was the first public university in the state and is one of the Midwest's oldest institutions of higher education. The University was looking for a way to make it easier for students to conduct ad hoc searches about course information to plan their schedules. The University deployed Google Search Appliance which drives queries to the mainframe, users can submit any number of flexible requests to determine the time, instructor, and location of the school's course offerings.
