When I wrote my dissertation at Western Michigan University, the only thesis template available was written for Microsoft Word. I developed my own template, written in LaTeX, which conformed to the Graduate College Guidelines. The contents of this repository are the result of those efforts. After graduating, I offered this template to the Graduate College, but they never made it available; that is why I created this repository.
This repository contains the following LaTeX files
| file | type | purpose | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | readme.tex |
document | Instructions for using the template |
| 2 | wmu-template.tex |
document | Minimum working example |
| 3 | wmu-thesis.cls |
document class | WMU formatting template |
A more thorough example utilizing this template, my complete dissertation, is available at https://github.com/jonlighthall/thesis.
