2. The Catalog Term page is displayed. Choose a term from the Search by Term pull-down list, and then select the Submit button.
3. The Search for Courses page is displayed. On this page choose from a variety of course characteristics to narrow your search. At a minimum, at least one selection must be made from the Subject pull-down list.

one value can be selected by using the Shift
key (to select consecutive values) and/or
Ctrl Key (to select non-consecutive values).
- In fields where you are permitted to enter
values, you may use the wildcard character
(%). For example, a search for 2% in the
course number field will retrieve all course
numbers beginning with '2' within
the subject you have chosen, or a search
