Hokie Stalker is the name given by Virginia Tech students to the university directory.

Searching the University Directory

Searching with Firefox

Keyword searches can serve as handy shortcuts. In recent versions of Firefox, you can simply right-click in a search box and choose to add a keyword for the search. See the Mozilla article on "Smart Keywords". This can be handy for databases like Virginia Tech People Search (colloquially known as "Hokie Stalker"; to suppress information visit Profile Visibility after logging in via CAS) and the library database Addison.
