One of the worst assumptions I run into all the time is "The rules belong in the business logic layer, not the database", which is always followed with, "why do...

G2, the first guy sounds quite cool, but from the second experience, I would guess you had a...

Try changing the query to something like this:
SELECT
Campus.CampusName,
Student.StudentID,
ISNULL(home.zip, company.zip) AS Zip
FROM
Campus

I don't understand what you're trying to do with the "INTO" command. It's not a command all by itself, but that's how it appears in your proc.
Also, I think...

As predicted, I'm going to suggest doing this kind of pivot operation in the application, not in the database. It's faster, easier, more flexible, and more secure.
If you absolutely...

If I'm not mistaken, SSIS can directly call C# DLLs. If I am mistaken, take a look at CLR procs and see if one of those will do what...

I don't think patindex can do that one for you.
You could throw a multi-character wildcard in there, after the first number and before the "mm", but that might get you...

I suspect "parameter sniffing" is your likely culprit. There are good articles on that if you look up that phrase in Google/Live/Yahoo/Dogpile/whatever.

There are various User_Name functions in SQL Server.
user_name()
system_user
Are two of them. Try those, see which one gives you what you want.
