Hey, that's where I went for grad school! Fun fact - it used to be called Beaver College, but had to change names in 2000 since porn kept showing up when people googled it.
This new name seems like a great exercise to test my SEO skills.
I thought I should check, for science - looks like they've improved search a lot since then. At least on Bing and DuckDuckGo* searching for beaver college only showed legit results even with Safe Search disabled, aside from one ebaumsworld joke link.
*which I believe proxies searches anonymously through ~~Google~~ (I was corrected, it used Bing and several other sources but not Google)
i'm pretty sure ddg uses bing, but I am probably wrong, and don't have the motivation to look it up.
