Dissertation & Thesis Formatting Workshops

The workshop includes margins, footnotes, bibliographies, page numbering, headings, table of contents, as well as advice about electronic submission.
Other Versions of Microsoft Word for Mac or Windows
Date and Time: Wednesday, May 21, 1:30 – 4:30
This workshop is for people using Microsoft Word 2004 on Macintosh, or Word XP (2002 or 2003), Word 2000, or Word 97 on Windows. The course is taught on Macintosh computers, but these versions of Word are sufficiently similar for Windows users to participate. You need to tell us exactly which version of Word you are using when you register so we will have the appropriate course materials for you.
Prerequisite: Working knowledge of your version of Microsoft Word for Windows or Macintosh.
Registration
Registration is required and is not complete until you have paid the $10 fee. To register, go to the Administrative Desk in the Lederle GRC, Rm A119 (545-9730).
Course Materials on the Web or Disk
Workshop materials for Word on Macintosh and older versions of Word on Windows are still available on the Workshop Tutorials & Quick Reference Guides section of the OIT Web site. You can also purchase a course packet from OIT for $5 plus tax.
