Two things I left out:
1. The init() function needs to have <cfreturn this> at the end.
2. When calling functions, you can used named arguments. The last line
could be rewritten as: <cfset qGetTopTenTitle =
reviews.getTopTenTitle(campus=url.Campus)> or <cfset qGetTopTenTitle =
reviews.getTopTenTitle(campus:url.Campus)>
