<cfquery name = "GetDepartments" datasource = "cfsnippets">
   SELECT Dept_ID FROM Departments
   WHERE Dept_ID IN (#PreserveSingleQuotes(List)#)

<!--- now, select the courses for that department based on the
quotedValueList produced from our previous query --->
<cfquery name = "GetCourseList" datasource = "cfsnippets">
   SELECT *
   FROM CourseList
   WHERE Dept_ID IN (#QuotedValueList(GetDepartments.Dept_ID)#)
