Description

The idea, in a nutshell, is to have real faceted search for the Members directory - so you can search by college, by department, etc. We'll need to have a discussion about what are the most logical fields to provide in such a search. I'd prefer to keep it fairly simple for now, and add additional features if we see a need. Here's one set of criteria we might start with:

Name: [text box]
Campus: [dropdown]
Role (see #642): [dropdown]
Academic Interests: [text box] ==
or Search [text box, searches all fields, just like the current "Search Anything..." box]

I'd also like to consider making the search results more tabular, so that you can sort by different fields. Here's a sample layout (the starred fields would be sortable)

Name* | Campus* | Role* | Title | Academic Interests | Last active*
