QUESTION 2

Create a Many-to-Many relationship Create two models connected by a many-to-many relationship using has_many through

Model 1: Campus

• city
• state
• name

Model 2: Student

• first name
• last name

Bearing in mind that a student can belong to more than one campus, set up their relationship with an additional field denoting if a particular campus is their primary campus.

solution note:

Rails didn't recognize pluralization (for 'Campus' created. 'campu'). Adding code to config/initializers/inflections.rb with proper words definition solved a problem.

Add index to association table for fast search.
