@tmclainut A few students have had their thesis rejected from grad studies recently because of the running head.

This change removes the chapter title from the running head (but retains page numbers).

Jeff, Can you tell me who in Graduate Studies is rejecting them? Grad Studies has no say in the format of the body of the dissertation. Here is their policy: Minimum Standards for Submitting Dissertations and Theses BYU Graduate Studies does not dictate style standards for the chapters of a thesis or dissertation (e.g., line spacing and fonts). Thesis and Dissertation Formatting Policy BYU Graduate Studies requires that a title page, abstract, and table of contents be included in each thesis and dissertation. The format of the title page must comply with University style standards as communicated at gradstudies.byu.edu. Formatting of the abstract and table of contents is at the discretion of the college's style standards. If needed, default formatting guidelines for each of these pages, the thesis body, and sample documents are available at gradstudies.byu.edu. BYU Graduate Studies ETD Requirements Formatting To ensure that each thesis and dissertation is legible and accessible in printed and digital format, BYU Graduate Studies requires: • US Letter size pages (BYU Print and Mail suggests margins of at least ¾” to ensure quality of printed and bound documents) • All fonts embedded in the PDF • Bookmarks for each chapter and heading that is present in the Table of Contents section in the PDF I’ve highlighted what I’m guessing they are getting hung up on. Print and Mail suggests 3/4 inch margins, but they don’t print and bind them any more. They don’t require it. If you’ll give me a point of contact — I’ll reach out to them and read them their policy.

Closed, as this was incorrectly requested by grad studies.
