Documentation:
This style file modifies the standard report style to follow the
Graduate Degree Support Section of the Registrar's Office's
"Directions for Preparing Doctoral Dissertations". It sets the
margins and interline spacing and disallows page breaks at
hyphens.
The \beforepreface command creates the title page, a copyright page
(optionally), and a signature page. Then the user should put
preface section(s), using the \prefacesection{section title}
command. The \afterpreface command then produces the tables of
contents, tables and figures, and sets things up to start
the
main body (on arabic page 1).
The following commands can control what goes in the front matter
material:
\title{thesis title}
\author{author's name}
\dept{author's department}
- Computer Science if omitted
The following switches allow for special title pages (not all are current)
\committeethesis - for a thesis in a committee (no dept.)
use \dept{committee name}
\programthesis - for a thesis in a program (no dept.)
use \dept{program name}
\educationthesis - for the School of Education. \dept doesn't matter
\businessthesis - for the GraduateSchool of Business. \dept doesn't matter
\lawthesis - for the School of law. \dept doesn't matter
\humanitiesthesis - for a thesis also submitted to the Graduate
Program in Humanities
\specialthesis - for a Graduate Special thesis
\industrialthesis - for a thesis in Industrial Engineering
\dualthesis - for a thesis in a dual language department.
Also define \languagemajor{language}.
e.g., \dept{French and Italian}
\languagemajor{Italian}
\principaladviser{the principal advisor's name}
(or \principaladvisor, if you prefer advisor spelled with o)
\coprincipaladviser{optional second principal advisor's name}
(or \coprincipaladvisor, use only if you have two principal
advisors only for the second one)
\firstreader{the first reader's name}
\secondreader{the second reader's name}
\thirdreader{optional third reader's name}
\fourthreader{optional fourth reader's name}
\setlength{\signaturespace}{.2in}
- default is .5in, can be adjusted to fit all
signatures in one page
\submitdate{month year in which submitted to GPO}
- date LaTeX'd if omitted
\copyrightyear{year degree conferred (next year if submitted
in Fall quarter)}
- year LaTeX'd (or next year, in December) if omitted
\copyrighttrue or \copyrightfalse
- produce or don't produce a copyright page (true by default)
\thesiscopyrighttrue or \thesiscopyrightfalse
- produces the style of copyright page listed by the
Thesis Office or the style that everyone else uses
(Thesis office by default).
\figurespagetrue or \figurespagefalse
- produce or don't produce a List of Figures page
(true by default)
\tablespagetrue or \tablespagefalse
- produce or don't produce a List of Tables page
(true by default)
This style uses interline spacing that is 1.3 times normal, except
in the figure and table environments where normal spacing is used.
That can
be changed by doing:
\setstretch{1.6}
(or whatever you want instead of 1.6)
This command should be put before the \begin{document} command but
after loading the packages
You can also set any particular section in singlespacing mode by using
the singlespace environment. For example
\begin{quote}
\begin{singlespace}
...
\end{singlespace}
\end{quote}
makes the quote singlespaced. See the documentation for setspace.sty
for more information.
The example at the beginning shows the 12pt substyle being used. This
seems to give acceptable looking results, but it may be omitted to get
smaller print.
