Help Don't want Gmail contacts to synch

[13ilgal]

Hi, everyone. I have my Verizon GS3 set to pull & display my Gmail email, which is my work account. It also syncs my calendar, which is great.

However, my work populates my address book automatically with all of my fellow employees...AND all the students (I work at a college). This has subsequently been synched with my phone. I don't want all this stuff in my phone contact list. Yikes!

Is there a way to have my mail and calendar synced, but get rid of all the contacts related to this single Gmail account?

Thanks for any help you can offer!
EDIT: Never mind. Just found this in Settings > Accounts and Sync. I clicked the link to my work Gmail and cleared the appropriate check boxes. Maybe this will help someone else...

Maybe although it is common knowledge with the obvious exception
