  Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) is a private research university in
  Cleveland, Ohio, United States, ranked #259 in the QS World University
  Rankings 2025. CWRU does not operate a public, documented developer or API
  portal; its outward technical footprint consists of an (archived) institutional
  GitHub organization focused on web content-template tooling, CAS-based single
  sign-on for campus identity, and library discovery delivered through the
  OhioLINK/SearchOhio consortium. Most institutional data is served internally
  through Tableau dashboards rather than open APIs, so the entries below describe
  confirmed public surfaces rather than openly documented programmatic endpoints.

    description: >-
      Campus single sign-on service for Case Western Reserve University. The

    name: CWRU GitHub Web Tooling
    description: >-
      The official Case Western Reserve University GitHub organization hosts a
      small set of (now archived) public repositories, primarily web
      content-management template utilities such as T4Utils and Refresh
      developer documentation for the university's TerminalFour CMS. This is
      open source tooling rather than a hosted API.
