Select 2 Not Working on my Website

/*==================================================================================
README:
This global var (`root_dir`) must be set to the relative path
of the root directory.
E.g.
If this page is in "career.clemson.edu/coop/"
then the line should read
$GLOBALS["root_dir"]="../";
or if this page is in "career.clemson.edu/coop/students/";
then the line should read
$GLOBALS["root_dir"]="../../";
The template automatically includes common meta elemtents (keywords, etc),
common CSS files (ours, bootstrap, font-awesome), a fallback fon non-HTML5 compliant
browsers, and some basic javasript files at the end of the page.
Feel free to add any other things as needed on a per page basis!
All includes *should* in %root_dir%/includes

> I followed the instructions exactly how they were posted on the select2 website, and it refuses to work on my website. Loading it on a website seems simple enough, so I don't know what could be causing the issue. Has anyone else dealt with this before? I'll copy my code below if it helps. This code displayed a drop down menu on my website with static CSS and not the bootstrap appearance, and I don't know why. It's also missing the search feature that I am after the most.
