Title:
Your Thesis and the University of Waterloo Regulations
Abstract:
In June 1994 the University of Waterloo upgraded its regulations concerning the format of theses, due to a cooperative effort amongst several graduate students in the Faculty of Mathematics. In this talk, I will describe the rationale behind these changes, and discuss the typesetting of a Mathematics thesis using Latex2e. In particular I will emphasize the the following of conventional typesetting practice through presenting a series of my own examples, in addition to discussing several useful references on the subjects of typesetting, document design, and typefaces. Questions that pertain to specific problems regarding Latex2e and thesis presentation will be welcome.
