Well first, you are posting to the wrong mailing list ;). You want the
Rails mailing list for this question. Second, I'm guessing that the
table column isn't actually dept_name (maybe a typo, dep_name, maybe you
actually spelled it out department_name, who knows). But that's just a
guess. I would suggest asking your question again on the rails list.
