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.

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)

The duck uses bing/yahoo/wolfram/their own crawler and a few other services. Funnily enough google is the one they never use.

Oof yep bad memory. Thanks for correcting me. That explains why the Bing results looked so similar.

i'm pretty sure ddg uses bing, but I am probably wrong, and don't have the motivation to look it up.

This new name seems like a great exercise to test my SEO skills.
