Search better on UNLV.edu

Couldn't find what you want on the university (UNLV.edu) site?

Are you frustrated with the poor quality of the UNLV.edu search engine?

Here's a way to find Google quality search results on the UNLV site. The solution is to use Google itself for searching the university website.

1. Search for UNLV on Google.

2. You see the first result as UNLV.edu (obviously)

3. Along with the link to unlv.edu, Google search incorporates other most popular links within unlv.edu domain and gives a search bar to search within this domain.

Google has been doing this for long and this is the first time, I found it useful. Its not just for UNLV, its applicable to not only sites in .edu domain but also popular sites in other domains (.com, .info, etc) too.
