Research direction

Start by locating the faculty and other select dropdowns in the frontend, then compare their behavior with the linked shadcn combobox example. Replace the relevant dropdowns so users can search for and select faculty entries; done means the intended selectors support both searching and selection without scrolling through the full list.
