In this case the Requestors are Students and Faculty from the Campus at 
large and they want to organize all their groups tickets by Requestor 
last name instead of by queues they managed

They have indicated that this provides a more personalized approach in 
that folks from A-F always get the same Counselor responding to them no 
matter what queue they inidcated for their problem

I realize this is a bit unusual but it is real important to this 
particular organization

Thanks
