MySQL SELECT question

[WarInc]

Im new to the whole hacking sceen so if this was answered a long time ago Im sorry.

Is it possible to include wildcards in select statements?

for instance:
SELECT db.table.colum FROM db.table
HAVING db.table.colum2 = *'Member of the Month'*

The problem Im haveing is our board has some extra credits like Member of the Month, Court Jester, etc .. and we can't create new user groups due to the fact that we wish to keep the old User Title their. TIA!!!
